In the middle of Tokyo’s trendiest district, a quiet sanctuary awaits. It offers a rare trifecta: world-class architecture by Kengo Kuma, a sublime collection of Japanese and East Asian art, and a vast, stunningly beautiful garden.
An Oasis of Sophistication and Tranquility
Point
- Experience a seamless fusion of art, nature, and architecture
- Admire the iconic bamboo-lined approach designed by architect Kengo Kuma.
- Find a moment of perfect peace in a vast Japanese garden in central Tokyo.
Where Three Worlds Converge
An oasis amidst the bustle of Omotesando, it offers a top-tier experience of three elements—architecture by Kengo Kuma, a sublime art collection including National Treasures, and an expansive Japanese garden—all at the highest level.
The Garden’s Hidden Teahouses
The museum originated as the private collection of a railway magnate. Its serene garden contains several authentic teahouses relocated from other parts of Japan, and the NEZUCAFÉ within the garden is the perfect spot to reflect after viewing the art.
