The museum is spacious, beautiful, and full of interesting outdoor exhibits. You can easily spend whole day here exploring at a relaxed pace. Lucky the day we go there was sunny day.
The overall experience was excellent and I even found nice ice cream at the cafeteria, which was a nice bonus after walking around. There is also relaxing foot bath area next to the cafeteria (there is vending machine sell towel as well) which was a perfect way to unwind after all the walking.
This is a very famous sculpture park and a wonderful place to spend time, whether you are interested in art or simply looking for a relaxing outdoor experience. The park is beautifully designed and allows visitors to enjoy impressive sculptures while walking through spacious and pleasant surroundings.
One of the great things about this place is that it is not only for adults who appreciate art and culture — there are also many areas and activities that children can enjoy. Because of this, it works very well as a family destination where everyone can have a good time together.
The entrance fee may feel a little expensive at first, but once inside, the scale of the park, the atmosphere, and the overall experience make it feel worthwhile. There is plenty to see and enjoy, making it easy to spend several hours here.
Overall, this is a highly recommended place for anyone looking to combine art, nature, and family-friendly entertainment in one memorable visit.
This place was an amazing museum and not to be missed. Whether you're museums or not, it's really quite beautiful and engaging on every level. The Picasso museum was quite stunning and really unique to see all of his different stages of art with great descriptions in English. We went on a rainy day and it was perfect to stroll through the garden even though it was raining we had umbrellas and it wasn't too bad. You can also go to the museum's indoors, which is a nice escape from the rain. Our kids loved playing on the Art netting where we spent a good 2030 minutes. We also ordered a waffle from the little café, which everybody says was outstanding. It was easy to find very accessible fairly priced a fun, rainy day or sunny day outing and great to see Art in an outdoor natural setting as well as inside the Museum. When coming to Hakone, I would highly recommend this Museum as a highlight not to be missed.
Beautiful surroundings and artwork- maybe the best part of the Hakone loop if you’re doing a day trip. Go before noon as less people and you can easily spend a couple of hours exploring the area.
It’s also interactive like going down a tunnel to look at the sky, climbing up to the top of the tower for 360 views, maze, etc. Also a structure dedicated for children to be able climb, bounce etc.
The foot hot spring is a bonus and good to try out - you can buy small towels or just air dry!!
Short walk from the station and discounted ticket if you show your Freepass.
Simply stunning array of external works. Some you can climb on or in ( depending on age and size). Any one who is anyone in modern sculpture and art is featured here. The gardens beautiful frame the works amd the scenery around is breathtaking.
With a restaurant that overlooks the gardens serving good value well cooked food it is a joy not to be missed.
We had lunch at picture window, all seats are in the window area so you may want to swap seats mid course so everyone can enjoy the visas.
