What to know

The largest collection of Japanese art anywhere, and the oldest museum in the country. Free for under-18s and over-70s. CLOSED MONDAYS. The Honkan building alone is two hours; the samurai armour and the swords are in there.

Closed on Monday. Plan around it — this is the single most common wasted morning.
