Those exhibit and artifact shows how they suffered after nuclear air raid. The exhibit was wonderful and being touch for me. But they conceal the most important subject. “Why were they suffer from nuclear bomb” Because, they started war and did xenocide a many East Asian. The WW2 was ended by two nuclear bomb. Then finally asian was no longer being slaughtered by Japanese army and got freedom. Nuclear bomb could be disaster for some Japanese, but it comes symbol of liberty for most Asian.

A lovely gallery, similar in size to goma in Brisbane. It had several interesting exhibits seperate the artist styles and one focussing in the city. It's nice to walk around and has a decent amount of seating. Recomend. if you have the time.

Newly reopened in 2023 after 2 years of renovation & the first exhibit until 6/18 is documenting the process of renewal and the things they kept, updates and how they carefully moved the artwork before and moved it back after. Fantastic outdoor sculpture to explore and lovely tree-filled spaces all around. Cafe is also lovely and sources from local farmers, bakers and fruit shops for a sustainable and high-quality focus on health and support of local Economy as well as less use of plastics and single-use waste than a typical cafe. Vegan and vegetarian friendly as well as a pairing suggestion with wine for each dish and intro of local producers in a stylish mag menu. Barrier free wheelchair and stroller accessible.

Beautifully, modern art museum located in the middle of a hilltop park. We had limited time before our train back to Tokyo, but we were able to absorb the best parts in about 45 minutes and have a great breakfast at the connecting cafe. This was a perfect companion to the Peace Museum, and the museum does an excellent job of explaining their mandate and role in the arts.
