Fuji Motor Sports Museum

Fuji Speedway Museum was an absolutely incredible experience and easily one of the highlights of our trip. As car lovers, we were blown away by the history, storytelling, and the beautifully curated collection of vehicles on display. Each exhibit is presented with so much detail and care, making it both educational and exciting to walk through. What made this place even more special for us is that we also did our wedding photoshoot here. The setting, surrounded by iconic cars and motorsport heritage, made our photos truly unique and unforgettable. The museum itself is spotless, modern, and very well laid out, allowing you to enjoy everything at a comfortable pace. The atmosphere is inspiring, whether you’re deeply into motorsports or just appreciate automotive design and history. Staff were friendly and the overall experience felt very welcoming. We absolutely loved every moment here and would highly recommend Fuji Speedway Museum to anyone visiting the area. A truly special place that we’ll always cherish.

Racing machines lead a gruelling life. If they survive the punishment, chances are they'd come out of it wearing proud battle scars. Just like a person who's earned his retirement, it is fitting and admirable that Toyota has such an amazing retirement garage for these purpose built beauties regardless of marque. Motorsports isn't big in my country when I was a kid. The first F1 TV broadcast I saw was in 1988, yeah that year when the white and fluorescent red steamroller flattened all comers. I was hooked. So whenever I could get close to a racing car/bike, even a stationary one, I don't need a second invite. At this facility, I fulfilled a long held wish of seeing up close some of the machines I recognized from TV. It's a very personal moment when they are so near. I loved that most of them were preserved as they left the battle arena; dirt, tyre balls, rushed repairs, these are signs of human grit and dreams, pushing against the odds to be the best. To be the fastest. Wifey accompanied me on this trip. She insisted even though she has zero interest. It's a good thing there's a cafe, where she made herself cosy and enjoyed tea and cake. The cafe's windows offer a partial view of Fuji Speedway. So if you're here when there's a race going on, you can catch the action in supreme comfort. This is the kind of place that moves me. I don't know when I'll come by these parts again. But I believe this won't be my only visit.

Pretty amazing to see the original cars that had made history in the endurance racing,particularly in the Le Mans and Daytona, showcasing Japan's success in the automobile industry. The cafe also offers a nice view of the Fuji Speedway and Mount Fuji can be seen from the Fuji hotel's cafe .

I visited this rare museum during my hotel stay. I’m enthusiastic about cars, but I don’t know much about their history. At first, I was just looking at the cars without really understanding much, but then a friendly staff member came over and started explaining different things about the cars I was looking at. I ended up having way more fun than I expected. I started asking questions, and he answered all of them with clear and easy-to-understand explanations. It even made me more curious about my own car—I decided to check technical manuals and videos afterward, haha. We spoke in Japanese, so I really enjoyed the experience. I’m not sure how much English support there is for foreign visitors, but since I saw several hotel staff speaking English, I assume some museum staff might as well. Either way, I recommend chatting with the staff while looking at the cars—you’ll probably learn things you didn’t expect, and it makes the visit a lot more fun.

Amazing museum and a superb location. The Mazda 787B alone was the reason for me to go but the rest of the collection is equally impressive. I appreciate that there aren't a lot of windows that make photography difficult. The view of the track from the cafe and terrace is amazing. The only downside of the museum is that it isn't that easily reached by public transport. On the way to the museum I got a taxi from Gotemba station and on the way back to Tokyo I got lucky with the express bus that goes to Shinjuku Station.

The most beautiful car museum I’ve been to! Set out on 3 story’s, it’s beautifully laid out & an amazing selection of cars & artworks. We stayed at the hotel & got discounted tickets & went to the museum twice!

Terrific display of cars from the history of Japanese Motorsport. Great terrace with views over the circuit. Pleasant cafe and shop.

great place for some car photos, very accessible. second floor has great cars. from third floor you can see races and enjoy coffee or matcha. they have small souvenir shop, but selection isn’t great
