Tokyo National Museum｜Encounter the Mysterious Dogu and European Architecture.

In Ueno Park, the most striking feature of the Tokyo National Museum is its elegant main building. Completed in 1937, this European-style building, with its red brick exterior and white lines, showcases the unique eclectic architectural style of the Meiji period✨ The most special exhibits in the museum are the Jomon period dogu (clay figurines). These mysterious human-shaped clay artifacts are often humorously referred to as 'ancient aliens' due to their peculiar shapes. With large eyes and exaggerated body features, they remain an enigma for archaeologists🥸 Exhibition Highlights: - Main Building: Focuses on Japanese art - Toyokan: Asian artifacts - Heiseikan: Special exhibitions - Horyuji Treasures Gallery: Japan's oldest Buddhist art 💡Visiting Tips: - Closed on Mondays - Recommended visit time: 2-3 hours - English audio guides available for rent - The garden is also worth a visit Although not as popular as Asakusa or Meiji Shrine, this is a must-visit spot for travelers who want to delve deeper into Japanese culture～
