Absolutely beautiful museum, fascinating art pieces. We went later in the day so it wasn’t crowded at all and there seemed to be one of those machines (for the life of me I can’t remember what it’s called) the things where something like a marble goes through this whole contraption like the butterfly effect where one small thing ends up doing a lot (I really hope someone knows what I’m referring to), and it looked interesting, they might run it at some point but we just checked it out. It was wooden and looked like a jungle thing. There was also a library in the museum, but it was closing around the time we were there. Definitely recommend if you’re in Toyama!

While visit Toyama, i find Google recommend this place, so I try to visit. Actually not so many things you can see as a foreigner, because only 2 floors which quite interesting to see: on the 4th and especially on the 6th floor. We can find the history of the founder and the creation, and see how beauty is the glass. The rest, it's like the library which full of Japanese books and cafe on the 1st floor. Most student/college student can study and do research here, because there's a study room also computer could be used, even they have newspapers collection, date by date. FYI, foreigner have to pay ¥200/person to visit.

One of the must see destinations in Toyama, showcasing the glass work arts from this area and other exhibits. Admission is very affordable at 200 yen. Although special exhibits might require additional fees, the permanent collection is already impressive enough. The place also houses the Toyama City Public library, which offers a large selection of books, publications and magazines. You can leisurely sit down and grab a book. The building was designed by renowned Japanese Architect Kengo Kuma and the massive interior is very impressive. Would highly recommend to art and architecture enthusiasts.

This modern museum contains galleries on multiple floors, with the top floor housing the Chihuly exhibit. Photographs aren't allowed in some galleries, unfortunately. The building itself is very interesting, and the unique design of the interior atrium is spacious and contemporary. The building also contains libraries, a cafe, and other municipal uses. The gift shop is a bit generic and didn't seem to have much museum merchandise when we visited. Some galleries were closed. Hopefully the museum will add galleries and exhibits in the future; we went through it pretty quickly.
