What other travelers are saying about Hakone Open-Air Museum
Absolutely beautiful. The art is immense and it’s so peaceful even with other guests around. Our day was extremely foggy, but it didn’t detract from the experience, in fact, it made it dreamy . Plus there’s a very large interactive sculpture for kids , places to walk and run and even an open air natural springs hot foot bath for your weary feet overlooking the hills . It’s stunning. There was also a special Picasso museum …just wonderful.The train to get there is also quite charming. It was a journey up, but entirely beautiful and worthwhile.
If you are headed to Fuji area, this is a must stop by! You can easily spend 2-3 hours in this place.
There are many art works including a play area for kids and a Picasso gallery as well.
At the end of the cafe area, there is a free foot bath which is perfect during cooler weathers!
Truly a sight to be visiting. Blessed with good weather the place covers quite a huge area. Very interesting place for art lovers and best part is they have a place to soak your legs outdoor with hot spring water!!
An elegant museum with wonderful art installations. The gardens are expansive and very beautiful. With a lot of must-see spaces, it takes around 3 hours to visit. Loved the Symphonic Sculpture! A real delight and enjoyable for both adults and children.
We had an incredible time delighting in the very well curated spaces throughout the Hakone open air museum! Such a fun, hidden gem. Hope to bring out kids one day as they had many spaces thought out for them.
Some areas restrict photography hence why there are no photos of the Picasso exhibit but don’t let that stop you from going. It was completely amazing! I fell in love with a whole new Picasso I’d not know yet.
