Ota Memorial Museum of Art

This small museum houses a collection of woodblock prints from noted artist Ota Seizo.

Reviewed By HelloKittyTravelPro

Excellent, small museum devoted to Ukiyo-e. In depth exhibitions focusing on a specific theme or artist. Utagawa Kuniyoshi’s work was on display when we visited in October. The size of the museum provides enough space for the exhibition to explore the subject in detail. Exhibitions change monthly. Allow about an hour to see everything. Small bookstore on the ground floor and gift store on the lower ground floor. The museum is located just a few metres off of Omotesando and less than 5 minutes from Harajuku Station and Takeshita Dori.

Reviewed By Johnnyrob1

If you enjoy Yebisu beer then a visited to the Yebisu Beer Museum is a must. Located just a short walk from the Ebisu train station it is a must. Don’t forget to look for the 1 lucky fish can in the beer can sculpture on your way out.
