The Mosaic Tile Museum is housed in an interesting building but unfortunately as a museum it seems to be lacking.
As you enter you pay a ¥300 entrance fee and then climb to the fourth and most interesting floor. There are many mosaic art pieces on the walls and a hanging art piece suspended from the ceiling around an open hole to the sky.
The third floor has a history of the trade, the second floor a practical applications showpiece (bathroom, bedroom, entrance designs). Finally, on the ground floor there is a small shop and a workshop where you can make your own mosaic art piece.
It’s a nice place but I feel ¥300 is a bit steep for what is there. There are other museums which offer more for...
Read moreThe exterior of the museum is always unusual, and we couldn't find the entrance right after we arrived and ended up going around the museum to get there! What a comforting sight! It seemed like an entrance to an exciting cave.
One bus per hour from Tajimi station. It seemed we could not get to our reservation time so that we took a taxi and it cost about 2,300 yen. Bus: 360 yen one way from Tajimi station. I tried ‘decoration with tiles ‘for one coin and it was fun to concentrate on making something. I would recommend it to anyone. The samples of the rooms made of tiles in the museum 2nd floor were...

多治見市モザイクタイルミュージアム に行った。
広島市現代美術館 Hiroshima MOCA の藤森照信展にわくわくし、アフターコロナにまず行きたかった場所。
藤森照信さんは建築史家、建築家。ツリーハウスの茶室など独創的な建築が多い。
建築の造形にきゅんきゅんし、最上階の光の差す空間に癒やされた。モザイクタイルの散りばめられた絵や椅子、机などいつまでもいたい時空間。さまざまなタイルの表現に感動した。

童心に帰らせてくれる不思議な時空間。
昼めしは多治見駅近くの食堂、なか川のうなぎ丼と肝入りの吸い物が安く、美味しかった。
昭和からありそうで、町の住民の方が利用されている感じで、奥様が優しかった。
The feeling of traveling in Hiroshima. Extra edition. Edited by Tajimi City, Gifu Prefecture. Consider Hiroshima from elsewhere.
I went to the Tajimi City Mosaic Tile Museum.
I was so excited about the Terunobu Fujimori exhibition at the Hiroshima City Museum of Contemporary Art that I wanted to go to the post-corona era first.
Terunobu Fujimori is an architectural historian and architect. He has many original architecture such as tree house tea room.
He was fascinated by the form of architecture, and was healed by the light-filled space on the top floor. A space and time where you want to stay forever, such as paintings, chairs, and desks with mosaic tiles. He was impressed by the various expressions of the tiles.
It was a space that I didn't want to leave, like Monet's water lily space at the Chichu Art Museum in Naoshima.
A mysterious time and space that will bring you back to your childhood.
For lunch, the restaurant near Tajimi Station, Nakagawa's eel rice bowl and soup with liver were cheap and delicious.
It seems that it has been around since the Showa era, and it seems that the residents of the town are using it, and the wife was...
