The 12 best shows in Bunkyo

Great spot if you’re a baseball fan—lots of energy, excitement, and team spirit in the air. But for someone like me, who’s not into baseball, it felt more like I accidentally wandered into a teenage reunion. So many young people around, I started questioning if I should be doing homework or downloading TikTok. Not really my scene, but if you’re into fastballs and youthful vibes, this place hits a home run.

Very comfortable and quiet. Staff were very helpful and friendly. Do visit the 43rd floor artists board. My personal favourite "Perfume" is listed multiple times. Enjoy great views of the Tokyo Dome and the rest of the Tokyo skyline.

A great place to shop and eat as there are many restaurants and retail outlets. In addition there is a roller-coaster, ferris wheel and other rides.

It glows at night just giving that holiday vibe. There is a lot of food, entertainment, hotels and stores around the place. All just walking distance, really connected. Also, there are 3 train stations within the walking distances

Went to the Giants vs. Carp game. Incredible experience. The food selection was incredible. Atmosphere was great. Very polite as well. Only cheering for the teams. No booing.

It's an area with a few rides next to the stadium, and various other attractions (indoor kids play place, haunted house thing), plus restaurants and shops. 3 stars because it can be confusing to navigate, especially with a baby in a pram (same for wheelchair users). The elevators are not straightforward to find and are often tucked away. I found that to get to the shopping area from the play zone, I had to exit and walk along the busy road because the underpass only had stairs. The food court area on 1F next to kids play place did not have enough seats for the number of food venues, but there are other restaurant options around.

This amusement park is not that big and it has indoor and outdoor rides. Adult and kids can enjoy. The roller coaster is a must try but if you’re afraid of heights that’s a no. They have many restaurants to choose from.

Rikugien is famous for its shitare Sakura or willow Sakura. There is night light up event going on right now. It is very grand and I think it’s larger than the one at Ueno Park entrance. Inside park it is also beautifully designed. There were some camellia blooming. But I don’t like one thing though. Since winter just passed so the grass is still yellowish dry. I hope spring will bring some lushes of green into the garden azalea and hydrangeas please come back quickly. I am not sure if they have these flowers since this is my first visit to this garden.

It's a good place. You can get experience from exploring the nature and history in same time, with cheap tickets too! The area is pretty big, and can give you fresh air even in the middle of summer (ngl summer in tokyo is so freaking hot) but it's feel nice here.

One of the most beautiful and serene Japanese gardens in Tokyo. It's beautiful at any time of the year. The tea house inside the garden serves match tea and traditional sweets with seasonal flavours.

This garden is the model from Wakaura, a scenic place in Wakayama. They put 88 scenic parts from Wakayama in this garden, and make it as the most worth to visit garden in Tokyo. The entrance fee is ¥300 You might want to visit this garden in different seasons, and I suggest the most beautiful time is around spring and autumn. They have a very scenic autumn leaves and an old big shidare sakura, also beautiful zen garden and pond inside. A good walking trail, there are short rout for 30-40 mins walk or long route 60-70 mins walk.

Had a nice time here. So many people work here to maintain it and some trees are dependent of humans to grow correctly. The pond and view are picturesque and there is a nice match place and food here inside. The staff were so friendly. Must visit to break the Tokyo city vibes.

This is a lovely park of very manageable size. Spring and late autumn are equally great times to visit, but other times of the year are fine, too. Very recommended.

Classic example of Edo-era strolling garden with many small pathways to spend a hour or so meandering. Stopping to have matcha and a sweet at Fukiage Chaya, while admiring the view, is always an added treat.

The Ferris wheel is pretty cool and it has a karaoke machine in each cabin. The small water ride also looked nice but I didn’t do it. The roller coaster was closed and it looked crazy. In general, if you’re in the area and want to kill some time then this is a good place to do that. You can buy tickets individually per ride or as a daily pass.

Beautiful area, beautiful stadium and just a nice area before a baseball game to be at. come early if you want to find your size in shirts and hats. and also to avoid lines. once inside, there is incredible different kinds of food. the stadium is easy to move around and anywhere you sit, it’s just a great experience.

The best experience with the family!! To start with, the food options were amazing. Bento boxes, rice bowels, squid balls, such I & udon, chicken & beef options then more traditional western options like burgers, pulled pork, hot dogs etc. Hawaiian donuts & ice cream. You name it, they had it. And the beer variety was also extremely impressive. BUT don’t get a drink just yet, wait until you are in your seat and for the right beer girl to come zipping past with a keg on her back to pour you a fresh cold one. These girls are apparently famous in Tokyo, with their own playing cards and apparently some of them have made music videos and become actual pop stars! Only in Japan… The game was amazing, Giants Vs Karp. There seemed to be much rivalry between these two teams and the crowd was getting well into it! Songs, towels, flags….. They all loved it! All in all the stadium was extremely easy to get to having the station just off the grounds, it was a very fun and positive atmosphere all around, the kids loved it, the parents loved it and it was the perfect afternoon together. 5 stars for sure!🙌🏻

A very well laid-out and organized venue for Giants Games. Staff are friendly and can work with foreigners. Signs are clear, and I have no problems finding my seat. I didn’t eat anything there, so I can’t speak to the quality of the food, but there seemed to be a good variety of Japanese game food, and you can bring food from outside if you prefer. For my experience I was in the cheer section, so I’ll speak to that. It was bleacher seating (bench with no back) and the seats were very narrow. There was no avoiding touching the person next to you. The energy though was wild! It’s a really cool experience if you’re ready for an intense cheer time! 👍🏼

Catching a Yomiuri Giants vs. Hiroshima Carp game at Tokyo Dome was one of the most electrifying experiences of our trip. Whether you’re a die-hard baseball fan or just curious about Japanese sports culture, this is a must-see for tourists and locals alike. The energy inside the dome is contagious—cheering sections, coordinated chants, and fans decked out in team gear make every inning feel like a celebration. The food scene inside the stadium is just as exciting. From bento boxes and yakitori to burgers, takoyaki, and soft-serve ice cream, there’s something for every craving. But the real MVPs? The beer girls. These incredible women carry mini kegs on their backs, hustling up and down the stairs with a smile, pouring fresh draft beer right at your seat. It’s a uniquely Japanese touch that adds to the festive atmosphere—and they deserve serious props for their stamina and charm. We had great seats and were surrounded by passionate fans, which made the game even more fun. The crowd was lively but respectful, and the stadium itself is clean, well-organized, and easy to navigate. Access is a breeze—Tokyo Dome is directly connected to Suidobashi Station, and also walkable from Korakuen Station, making it super convenient via JR and Tokyo Metro lines. The surrounding area, Tokyo Dome City, is packed with attractions including an amusement park, shopping mall, restaurants, and even a spa, so you can easily make a full day out of your visit. Whether you’re there for the sport, the snacks, or just the vibe, Tokyo Dome delivers an unforgettable slice of Tokyo life. Don’t miss it.

During our two week stay in Tokyo we wanted to make sure to catch a baseball game! I am so glad we did because the Japanese put the USA to shame with the level of excitement and fun of the game. There are also lots of food and drink options at reasonable prices. We are not sure we can ever go to a game in the States again after this great experience at Tokyo Dome.

I went to see Oasis in the Tokyo Dome on October 25th. The entrance went smoothly, it was very clear where to go even from the other side of the dome. We bought a couple of drinks, (which you can pay for using your Suica card!) and went in. It was quite easy to find our seats, except for the fact that there was a British couple in our seats, which caused a bit of confusion on both our sides. Ah well. The opening act, Asian Kung-Fu Generation, was quite cool. During the opening act I wanted to buy us another drink but the shops were all closed so the only option we had was the vending machine. We sat in the SS area, which is supposed to be one of the better seats in the dome, but our view got blocked by one of the six mega sound systems. Once the show was over, it only took us about 10 minutes to get outside. All in all it was very impressive and lots of fun to see Oasis live in Tokyo.

The entrance fee is 300 yen, which is reasonable for a visit. The garden is well-maintained and features several historical markers scattered throughout, offering insights into its past. There are restrooms, shaded areas, and benches that make it a comfortable place to stroll or rest. While the garden is pleasant and peaceful, it didn’t quite stand out to me compared to others I’ve visited in Japan. Perhaps it was the lack of visible wildlife—aside from a few birds, some lizards, and a couple of pale fish, I didn’t see much. No turtles, which I’ve come to enjoy spotting in many Japanese gardens. Still, if you're nearby, it's definitely worth a stop. It's a calm and clean space with historical charm, even if it wasn't my personal favorite

An ancient Japanese garden located near Tokyo Dome, this expansive garden not only features a wide variety of plants but also many historical ruins. It’s a great place for walking and photography, and it also holds rich educational value. However, there are lots of mosquitoes here, so when visiting, be sure to wear long pants or apply insect repellent 😅😅😅

Garden is quite small but very well designed. You can have some tea and snacks in old style tea house, enjoy tranquil lake view or take a walk around area. Place is famous for plum blossoms, but I think there is enough to see every season.

Among my favorite gardens in Tokyo -- classic Edo-era stroll garden, beautifully maintained and serene as can be. The restaurant at the West Gate offers on-site meals with a view overlooking the garden, take-away bentos at lunch, and changes to a teahouse later in the day. Entry into the garden is a little difficult to find if coming from the north (just keep folloing along the white wall) -- there's a west and east point of entry at the southern end of the garden.

Beautiful and peaceful full park. We were pretty much alone there with a few people passing by. We saw cute duckies swimming around in the pond. We even found a stamp station. If you are looking for some peace and quiet, definitely stop there. 🙏

This place inspired retirement goals. Saw a bunch of elderly under a shaded tree to take pictures of a bird by the pond. An ancient spot that was build perfectly for one to enjoy till this date. Definitely worth a visit. It might be a lot more beautiful during spring with all the blossoms.

A beautiful garden. I enjoyed walking around and finding all the hidden routes. The garden is very well maintained and was very clean and fresh. An enjoyable walk.

A pretty and peaceful spot right next to the bustling Akihabara. If you're looking for a quiet place to sit under the shade of trees, this is a great choice. The surroundings are quite nice, and while there's not much to see in terms of attractions, the atmosphere inside is very relaxing.

I randomly sumbled upon this temple. Certantly wasn't expecting to find a Confucius temple in Tokyo like this. While the gate, yard and main temple building all look large and impressive, I think that the complex feels a little bit empty.

It's a quiet temple, a Confucius one. It's mainly a place for people to take a walk through and quite a number of people have tied their prayers onto the stands. The doors to the main hall aren't open, I'm not sure if they are open during festivities. But the temple does look different from most other temples in Japan, with its black lacquer finish. There's a tour guide giving some tourists a tour, so if you are part of a tour, they might give you a more interesting look to this temple.

Nice place to visit, it is not a big area. But you can still enjoy the culture. In November we managed to see beautiful foliage on trees. Better go in the morning as with any tourist spots.

I stumbled upon this temple thinking it was Kanda Myoujin, but was pleasantly surprised to find that it was a different temple, and one dedicated to Confucius. The temple seemed empty at the time, but the grounds were lovely to walk around.

Yushima Seidō is a hidden gem in Tokyo, offering a tranquil retreat steeped in Confucian history. The black lacquered architecture is striking and solemn, creating a contemplative atmosphere. It’s less crowded than other historical sites, making it perfect for quiet reflection. The site also has educational significance, once serving as a center for Confucian learning. A peaceful and intellectually enriching stop.

This ancient temple helps people understand the historical development of Confucian thought in Japan 🙂👍

Tucked in the quiet folds of Bunkyo Ward like a well-kept secret from Tokyo’s neon-soaked chaos, this place is that rare combo of serenity and theatrical drama. First off: the trees. The sculpted pines out front look like they were trimmed by a Zen master with OCD and a step ladder. Majestic, muscular, and improbably symmetrical — think bonsai trees that hit the gym. The main hall rises like something out of a samurai opera: green copper roof, aged wooden pillars, and a stillness so thick you start whispering without realizing it. Inside, it’s an ornate, golden glow-up of altars, incense, and hush. Chairs were lined up like something spiritual was about to kick off — or maybe just a very calm PTA meeting. And let’s not ignore the statues. You’ve got your peaceful Jizo Bodhisattvas lining up like the most chill boy band in history. Then just around the corner: Buddhist Bouncer Mode. One statue looked ready to throw down with a thunder god. Rippling abs, iron glare, hand raised like “you shall not pass… without inner peace.” We wandered. We sweat (a lot). We silently thanked whoever installed that lone vending machine near the cemetery path. And we left better than we arrived — calmer, more contemplative, and 12% more respectful of pine trees. Hot tip: The grounds are free to enter, uncrowded, and make for a stunning photo walk. Bring your water, your wonder, and a friend who doesn’t mind you whispering “Whoa” every five minutes.

First visit! It's a large temple in Tokyo, originally from the Edo period under the Tokugawa shogunate. The grounds are really spacious and luxuriously laid out. It also has a very calming atmosphere.

As soon as you see this place you're already feeling all of the serenenty & peace that's embracing your entire bring. Everything is as a clearing experience it's so beautiful. The grounds were perfectly groomed & the statues were absolutely beautiful to behold. There's this huge one I call the iron man as he appears to be guarding daring anyone to pass through who has a negative mindset. I truly enjoyed & have wanted to see this yet never had the time. Much Gratitude 🙏 with True Blessings, Leeanne.

Amazing morning pray with dram and great atmosphere, very near to the exit!

Amazing!! Beautiful place to visit. I went to visit Sosai Masutatsu Oyama's, Founder of Kyokushinkai Karate gravesite. It was really special. Osu (Pass the right side of temple, take a right turn at the fence, 3 or so plots in.)

We loved the temple, shrines, and surrounding cemetery. Unlike many temples, we were allowed entry to the main temple. The grounds are serene and beautifully decorated and were only surpassed by the astounding beauty of the temple's interior. Pictures are not allowed inside the temple, but what I saw will stay in my mind for the rest of my life. There was such detail in the woodwork, wall paintings, and furnishings. All I can say is do not miss the opportunity to visit the grounds and the temple.

Amazing place! Located almost right next to Ikebukuro station, this temple is really beautiful. There are some stalls at the base and then you walk up stairs and it's so nice. We spent a while here just because everything is so beautiful and peaceful. There are lots of cats here too.

Super lovely garden in just 10min from Hakusan station. Now it is higanbana season so there is a chance to make a beautiful pictures. There is almost no people in the early morning hours. I noticed a lot of different trees and plants for every season. I think picnic durring autumn foilage time and plum/sakura seasons will be superb! Yokozuna-sized cat can meet you by the entrance if you are lucky enough.

I went there on 23rd October 2025. It was very peaceful and relaxing environment in the garden listening to birds chirping. There were not much flowers obviously at this time of the year but there were many amazing plants, trees, pond and shrine. Definitely recommend to visit it. You will be impressed by the atmosphere.

A very lovely place. I came here during a very cloudy day in mid October, so the maples had not turned red yet. But the absence of crowds made the place very peaceful. I would recommend a visit at any time of the year.

Visited on April 6, 2025 Beautiful in all seasons. Less crowded during Sakura season. Perfect for picnics. there are fewer number of sakura trees than other famous spots but the trees are well maintained and can enjoy flowers up close. The Japanese garden area is absolutely stunning. * Entry fee: 500 yen (per person) * no trash cans, bring back all your trash.

Koishikawa Botanical Garden in Tokyo is an amazing place to visit, especially if you’re looking to experience Japan’s natural beauty in a peaceful setting. It’s a bit away from central areas like Shinjuku, Shibuya, or Tokyo Station, so I highly recommend taking the train instead of walking. Once you’re off the train, there’s still a short walk to get to the garden, but it’s manageable. If you’re coming from Gokokuji Temple, it’s actually close enough to walk, and doing so is a great way to explore the local area. We entered through a side entrance, near the greenhouse, not the main entrance, and I noticed right away that they have bathrooms available—which is always helpful. Just a heads-up: there are no public trash cans in most places in Japan, including here. So if you’re carrying snacks or drinks, make sure to bring a small bag to keep your trash with you. If you plan to visit, I strongly suggest going during peak seasons like cherry blossom season or summer. When we visited, it had rained the days before, so some of the paths were wet and muddy—not everywhere, but enough to make it slightly difficult to walk in some areas. Even so, the experience was unforgettable. This garden had some of the most beautiful and massive trees I’ve ever seen in my life. Truly breathtaking. It’s a place where you can just slow down and take it all in. I was so amazed that I didn’t even take many photos—I just wanted to be present and enjoy the surroundings. Admission is only 7 dollars, which makes it a very affordable experience. If the weather is nice, you can even do a picnic—there are lots of lovely spots to sit and relax. In short, this is a place where you’ll find peace, beauty, and a deep connection to nature. Just make sure to go during a good season and avoid the rainy days if you can. I highly, highly recommend it.

One of my favorite gardens! It feels less manicured than others, and beyond the greenhouses, it feels more like a wilderness than a garden.

Visited Koishikawa Botanical Garden last spring, hoping to catch the sakura blooms, but unfortunately, we arrived a bit too late in the season. Despite that, the garden was a beautiful and peaceful retreat from the busy city. The entrance fee was 500 yen, and we received a map at the entrance, which made it easy to navigate. The garden itself was quite large, perfect for a serene and refreshing walk. Even in late spring, the weather was pleasantly cool. There was also a small yet charming greenhouse in the middle of the garden, where the restrooms could be found. We saw many locals enjoying picnics with their families, adding to the tranquil atmosphere. Overall, it was a lovely experience, and I’d highly recommend it to anyone who loves nature and plants. A great spot to unwind and reconnect with nature!

What a nice little gem! I went to see the exhibition on the tea ceremony utensils from the Hosokawa family’s collection. The museum itself is small, but the treasures on display are impressive and some of them are designated as national treasures and important cultural assets. Please note that, although you will be given a leaflet with an overview in English, most exhibits are in Japanese only. Overall, I really enjoyed it and the location is quite beautiful, perfect for a weekend stroll away from the hustle and bustle of the city. Also, admission is free with the Grutto Pass!

I would recommend even though it’s out the way a little, it’s very relaxing and the workers are very friendly and knowledgeable.

Two stars for the building and the setting (nearby garden) but, if I wanted to see the bric-a-brac of a wealthy dilettante, I can swipe around Instagram for free. The Hosokawa family really needs to think carefully about its curatorial choices here: not a single one of the items listed in the English guide (including a national treasure and several culturally significant works) were on display but, sure, include betting tickets, restaurant menus, luxury train passes and store welcome cards from Louis Vuitton, Christofle and others from a trip to Paris in the 1920s. Add a minor Cézanne, some dried-up palettes and a Le Coultre clock and that is half of what is on display today. Again, I cannot understand the ¥1000 adult entry fee for museums like this given the paucity of the collection. Avoid unless you feel like a nice walk from the streetcar across the river to the garden and up the hill in spring or autumn.

The artworks on the scrolls is beautiful and interesting to watch, but i feel that this is a museum for the japanese themselves, as there i very limited information translated and it can be quite a nightmare to get any sense of the exibitions. Think twice about spending the 1000 yen if you cannot read the kanji.

Day a great museum, a real treasure, hidden away of the beaten tracks of Tokyo. Great Chinese art from various dynasties. Wow! The building itself, some 90 years old, is a treasure of its own. So it's the gorgeous park it is located in. Must see!

A small but well-regarded museum in a quiet neighborhood in Tokyo. It houses the collection belonging to the Hosokawa family, which includes a former Prime Minister and feudal lords (Daimyo).

We really enjoyed the sexy ukiyo-e that we saw here. Your own enjoyment will depend largely on what exhibit you come here to see. There is nice little park nearby.

I dont think this place is worth to visit, especially jf you cannot read Japanese. Price for adult is expensive around 3000 yen.

The only fun part about the museum was the VR section. Everything else just felt like they had to put stuff there to fill up the space. They did have a few interactive sections but everything was pretty average. I don’t think the whole experience was bad, it’s just there’s nothing to write home about. Come here if you have the time and money or if you have kids who are really into space.

When I went there were 2shows about outer space. One from 11:30 and an another from 12:00, so choose as you wish It will cost 1800yen while entering there will be video clipping about the space at 2 locations. After passing that there are few games which were fun to play and many space related informations and the art works were there and finally you will exit with space shop. It was worth visiting the clippings were simply made beautiful with multiple projects

Good place to visit, Small place but VR adds value. Friendly for English speaking foreigners too.

This is definitely a place worth visiting. You won’t be disappointed when you come here. I really loved it — it’s so beautiful, and I found myself saying “wow” so many times! 🌌✨

¥1800 adult ¥1500 student age, not same other photos, my best shots are this, unique in Japan - Golden Vending Machine (like RoboCar in MARS), in addition there are kid custom for photo , free of charge 😎

Immersive experience and lots of interactive activities. Most exhibits has English descriptions. Price is 1800 jpy for adults, time spent about 1.5hrs if you view the exhibits.

Such a lovely museum inside the Toppan Building. The staffs here were nice too. I really enjoyed this museum. The place was clean & well maintained. The exhibits were very interesting. Enjoyed seeing the history & progress of printing. Enjoyed the free stamp area as well.

I went there on Saturday but it was almost empty. There was no event at that time so I can only access 1/4 of the museum. So the entry was free. They have printing and writing history from all over the world and a dedicated section for Japan's history as well. Overall good vibe for a side quest on a holiday.

A must have if you want to understand history of printing, in Japan in particular, but also in the World in general.

Museum itself is not big, but if you start reading descriptions and watch videos, it will take some time. Almost all videos has english subtitles, so you can easily know about all the history of printing and what impact it had on live.

Excellent museum. Impressive historical references, well designed exhibits, wonderful examples for each period. Highly recommended regardless of your background, but of course for those interested in the history of printing, graphic design and art in general.

Pretty small and quiet museum. The 1F has a free gallery that displays a print exhibit or some variety. The B1F has the museum proper, which is small and, even on a weekend, rather quiet. If you time your visit right, they occasionally have printing workshops you can participate in (on weekends they are at 3pm; Japanese only). All in all it’s a nice place to visit if you’re already in the area, but not necessarily worth going out of your way for.

Extremely well thought out museum that introduces you to the history and world of printing. For anyone who has an interesting subject, this is well worth a visit.

Serene and large temple with open spacious area in front of main temple. Although it is at the end of a wide road, there is not that much traffic so it is usually quiet at anytime of day. If you go at 6:30am in the morning you can see the local community meeting to do ラジオ体操 ("Rajio Taisou") or Radio Calisthenics. On Sunday mornings only (at about the same time as the Rajio Taiso) there is usually a small van with fresh fruit and veg just outside the temple entrance

Love it! It's pretty big and beautiful. Sells omamori as well.

Very beautiful temple

Pleasant

Good

Boudhist temple

(Translated by Google) Koishikawa, Bunkyo Ward. Founded in 1415, this temple enshrines Amida Buddha. Its origins date back to a hermitage established by Shogei during the Muromachi period, and it is also the family temple of the Tokugawa clan. When Tokugawa Ieyasu's mother, Odai-no-kata, died in Kyoto in 1602, Ieyasu had her remains buried here and named the temple Denzuin after her posthumous Buddhist name. Since then, it has served as the family temple of the Tokugawa clan, where many important figures related to the Tokugawa clan, including Hatsuhime (Tokugawa Hidetada's fourth daughter), Senhime (wife of Toyotomi Hideyori and Honda Tadataki), and Takatsukasa Takako (Tokugawa Iemitsu's wife), are buried. The temple also boasted a majestic campus where monks were trained, and was known as one of the "Three Sacred Mountains of Edo," alongside fellow Tokugawa family temples Zojoji and Kan'eiji. Furthermore, at the end of the Edo period, Yamaoka Tesshu, Kondo Isami, Hijikata Toshizo, and Okita Soji formed the Roshigumi, the predecessor to the Shinsengumi. After the Meiji period, with the fall of the shogunate and the anti-Buddhist movement, many of the sub-temples and branch temples were separated, and the temple's influence declined. Most of the grounds were burned down in the Great Tokyo Air Raid, but it was rebuilt after the war and is now a place of relaxation for local people. (Original) 文京区小石川。1415年創建。本尊は阿弥陀如来。室町時代に聖冏(しょうげい)が開いた草庵が始まりとされているお寺で、徳川家の菩提寺でもあります。1602年、徳川家康の生母・於大の方が京都で死去すると、家康はその遺骸をこの地に埋葬し、彼女の法名に因んで傳通院と名付けました。以降、初姫(徳川秀忠・四女)、千姫(豊臣秀頼・本多忠刻の妻)、鷹司孝子(徳川家光・正室)など徳川家ゆかりの人達が眠る徳川家の菩提寺となりました。 このお寺は僧侶を育成する学寮としても威容を誇り、同じ徳川の菩提寺である増上寺・寛永寺と並ぶ「江戸の三霊山」と称されました。又、幕末には山岡鉄舟・近藤勇・土方歳三・沖田総司らによって新選組の前身となる浪士組が結成されています。 明治以降は、幕府の滅亡と廃仏毀釈により塔頭・別院の多くが分離し、寺勢は衰え、東京大空襲では境内のほとんどを焼失してしまいましたが、戦後に再建され、現在は地域の人達の憩いの場となっています。

Although it is compact, the exhibits are easy to see. The special exhibition is also unique. If there is a chance, please go

For what it is, which is a place to view the works of two anime/manga artists, I thought it was great. One of the artists was indeed a pioneer in anime, and the other is into the next generation but still influencial in the direction that manga content evolved. Both are deceased, adding to the mystique.

It’s a little out of the way, but this museum hosts periodically changing exhibitions of art and cultural items. It’s worth checking what they have going on, and maybe venturing over!

Nice museum featuring Japanese comics artists. There is not a lot of information in English, but it’s fun to visit if you like comics.

Nice old (Showa)Japanese private museum, kind of home made setting. Nice Takeshida collection.

A cosy art museum in multiple levels hosting artworks and graphic design by Yumeji Takehisa and also typography and logography by many artists in modern history.

Great and very well managed museum!
