Go gallery-hopping
The Roppongi area is home to many noteworthy art museums and galleries, foremost among them the institutions that make up the “Roppongi Art Triangle”: the National Art Center, Tokyo, the Suntory Museum of Art in Tokyo Midtown, and the Mori Art Museum at Roppongi Hills. A ticket stub from any of the three museums entitles you to admission discounts at the other two.
Other facilities of interest to art aficionados include 21_21 Design Sight, a museum dedicated to bringing the “joy of design” to visitors, and the complex665 and Piramide buildings, which house several distinguished galleries. Many works of public art, created by artists such as Toyo Ito, Louise Bourgeois, and Tokujin Yoshioka, also dot the streets of Roppongi. Why not see how many you can spot on your artistic stroll through the area?
