The Monday Piece - Tokyo National Museum

This week's Monday Piece is on Tokyo National Museum! On Saturday I spent the day with friends escaping the very hot Tokyo streets, instead enjoying the offerings of the Tokyo National Museum. At only 600 Yen (less than £4.00) to get in it's a bargain as there are multiple buildings and gardens to explore - we saw a vast collection of Japanese art and history from multiple eras, as well as Asian art from Korea and China including calligraphy, statues and beautiful ceramics. During the humid Summer months it's an ideal place to go as it's not overcrowded, there are lots of different collections and usually limited edition exhibitions, and there's strong air con throughout which is a deal breaker! A definite Tokyo must do :)
