The overall design feels really refined. It’s not just about the view—the layout and the space itself are very comfortable too.
It feels more modern than places like Tokyo Tower, so if you love urban night views, you’ll probably like this place even more.

Ashikaga Flower Park
At Ashikaga Flower Park, you can enjoy the sight of all kinds of seasonal flowers, which adorn the park according to eight themes: "Early Spring", "The Spring Flower Festival", "A Tale of the Wisteria", "Rainbow Garden", "Blue and White Garden", "The Flower Faeries Who Float By the Water", "Purple Garden", and "The Garden of Illuminated Flowers". The park is a popular location, enjoying not only local visitors, but those from abroad.
It was my first visit, and I discovered there were more varieties of flowers here than I had imagined, which was a really pleasant surprise. Everywhere I walked, there were flowers in different colors and shapes. Besides the famous wisteria, the other flowers were also well worth seeing. The whole park was so colorful, and it put me in a great mood.

Kyoto city KYOCERA Museum of Art
It started as Japan's second largest public art museum, Tairei Kinen Kyoto Art Museum, that commemorated then-emperor's enthronement, then the name was changed to Kyoto City Art Museum. In spring of 2020 after a renovation, it was reopened as Kyoto City Kyocera Art Museum.
If you love historic architecture or photography, the Kyoto City KYOCERA Museum of Art is a must-add to your itinerary. The overall atmosphere is quiet and elegant, with a strong retro charm. Every angle feels like a scene from a movie.

Toyota Municipal Museum of Art
An art museum on a small hill overlooking the city center of Toyota, Aichi. Opened in 1995, it presents a wide-ranging collection centered on art from the late 19th century to the present, along with design and crafts.
My biggest takeaway after visiting was how “comfortable” it felt.
The design isn’t overly flashy. Instead, it shows its beauty through proportions, materials, light and shadow, and reflections on the water. Every corner feels like a movie scene, and the view changes every few steps. You can really feel the thoughtful design throughout. -
