Travel | Nezu Museum Walk-in Guide 🏛️

The Nezu Museum is really popular on Xiaohongshu (Little Red Book), and I'm not a fan of visiting places that are all the rage, so I didn't plan on going. But guess what? Its location is just too convenient; I stumbled upon it while shopping on Omotesando. 📍 Location 👍👍👍👍👍: Right by the Omotesando Station Genza line Ginza line A5 exit, pass by Miu Miu and a string of shops, and you'll see the museum's sign at an intersection. 🎫 Admission 👍👍👍👍: 1400 yen, you can just walk in and buy it, or you can reserve in advance. The museum isn't crowded. The whole place is divided into two areas, one for the exhibition and the other is an outdoor medium-sized garden. 🗿 Exhibition 👍👍👍👍: Six exhibition rooms on the third floor, half with Japanese items and half with Chinese items, quite interesting indeed. 🌲 Garden 👍: Can be walked through in 10-20 minutes, with one or two old houses and the rest is just plants and stone paths. It's really quite average! Parks in Shenzhen are prettier, not to mention our Suzhou gardens. 📷 Photography 👍: The most popular spot is the gravel corridor at the entrance, which is free but crowded. No photos allowed inside the exhibition hall. The garden isn't very photogenic either, just regular green trees and forests, it all depends on the photographer's skills. ☕️ Restaurant 👍: The popular restaurant is actually quite small (estimated to be about 3m x 6m), and it's always packed. I hate crowded places where you have to sit elbow to elbow. I really don't understand how others manage to take good photos here. There's a queue to get into the restaurant, and they stop the line at around 3 PM. In summary, the location is easy to find, the admission is affordable, the exhibition is worth a look if you're passing by, but not particularly worth a special visit. The garden is average, photography depends on the photographer, and the restaurant is crowded. #NezuMuseum #OmotesandoStation #TokyoGardenLandscapes
