More than the museum itself, the architecture and the vibe of the building is really amazing. Both inside and outside and the Japanese garden. Even if you aren’t interested in five hundred years old bowls it worth the visit!

Bite-sized themed exhibitions. Nice place overall. My only problem is that it is really dark. It's so dark that today I saw old ladies using lamp torches so they can see the artworks. Sounds crazy, isn't it? But it's true. That's unfortunate, especially when the artworks are small and intricate.

We visited this museum on the international museum day, so our entry was free (Sunday)! We did not have to queue at all and it wasn't crowded. I really enjoyed learning so much about east-asian culture and their antique art/history. The staff here is also really nice and garderobe is free (even though we tipped them a bit of money, since they were being so nice!).

Very interesting museum with English translations for almost every exhibit. It was very quiet when I visited, but that could be because it was raining.

Small Museum but with a great deal of art. There are some beautiful sculture reproduction and painting that deserves to be seen. When I was there, a room was closed. There is also a small shop that is very nice and also the personnel very warm and welcoming.
