Overview

Are you interested in Japanese art, history, culture, and lifestyle? A visit to Japan's oldest and most renowned museum, the Tokyo National Museum, could be a perfect choice.
Built in the early 20th century, the Honkan (main building) has been designated as an Important Cultural Property and consists of two floors. We will begin our exploration on the 2nd floor, where you’ll learn about Japan's history through the exhibits. On the 1st floor, the rooms are categorized by artifact type, including Buddhist statues, samurai swords, kimonos, and more.
The museum also features a well-regarded shop and a stunning Japanese-style garden with teahouses. Additionally, we will enjoy a leisurely stroll through Ueno Park. Once the property of a renowned temple during the Samurai Era, the park is rich in historical sites and remains.
We also offer a range of reasonable, tiered pricing options!
