Daily except Monday from 10am to 5pm (last entry at 4:30pm)
Nezu Museum houses a private collection of ancient Japanese and East Asian art saved from the WWII bombing. The museum’s building, designed by Japanese architect Kengo Kuma is new but has kept many old Japanese details and a beautiful Japanese garden. What a wonderful way to get in touch with the country’s rich history. In the middle of bustling Aoyama, you can find peace and quiet at the Nezu. After your visit, have a green tea enjoying the greenery to restore your batteries before heading back to the 21st century.
