Discovering the Tokyo National Museum

Join us for a tour of the Tokyo National Museum, home of the world’s largest collection of Japanese art and artifacts. We’ll be looking at striking samurai armor, a hand-painted kimono, mysterious artifacts from prehistory, and much more as we explore the Museum’s stunning architecture and peaceful garden.

• The objects featured in this movie are part of the Tokyo National Museum’s permanent collection. However, they are not always on view because we change the displays regularly. Please check our website for exhibition details.
