Hakone Museum of Art

Forest shower therapy, you can capture every little detail from the vivid green leaves, sunlit stone path to the tall straight cedar trees. I spent an hour soaking it all in. Highly recommend if you love quiet moments, sunlight through trees, and taking peaceful nature photos #ForestBathing #NatureLovers #ShinrinYoku #QuietMoments #TreeTherapy #JapanNature

The museum wasn't interesting for me. It's all about portret etc. But the parc is pretty. Nice to escape for a calming stroll however it was quite small.

Beautiful Park, and nice little teahouse plus small museum.

A relatively small but calming Japanese style moss garden with exhibit halls showing paintings of a Japanese artist and also some ancient Japanese pottery. Parts of the garden were closed off and there was some repair works when I visited at the end of September 2024. There is also a small tea house where you can buy tea and a small snack to sit and admire the moss garden. As it was empty and looked dark inside, it looked closed and I didn’t go in. I took my time at this garden/museum and stayed around 1 hr 45 minutes. I would say if you’re the check-box type of traveller, an hour would be more than sufficient. There is free parking within 3 minutes walking distance of the entrance.

The entry fee is worth it just for the garden! Lots of good photos here of a classical Japanese garden. We've been in Japan for a week now and this one is by far the best maintained. Would recommend to anyone visiting the Hakone region

Don’t miss this! Absolutely breathtaking garden and grounds! Would be even more incredible in late Fall but still magnificent any time of year.

Wow! If you are in Hakone area do not miss this fabulous gallery / sculpture garden. Exquisite art, gardens, foot spa, playground and more. A Hakone highlight

the museum is not for me, but the garden is worth visiting really pretty. they have a small matcha cafe with matcha sweets.
