This is a huge department store—you could spend all day here and still not see everything. The floors are clearly organized, and there’s a separate building just for men’s items. The selection of suits is amazing.

teamLab Planets TOKYO DMM.com
The art collective teamLab is known for creating immersive, interactive experiences using cutting-edge digital technology. At teamLab Planets TOKYO DMM.com, step into the sheer awe of art that blurs the line between observer and the art itself. The museum saw a major renovation in January 2025, expanding event space by about 1.5 times and adding an outdoor area.
You have to take off your shoes and walk around barefoot everywhere.
Some areas are filled with water and you can tell a lot of feet have been through there.
There was a bad smell and it felt really uncomfortable, honestly didn’t feel very hygienic. -

Echigo-Tsumari Art Triennale
In the green, lush countryside of Echigo-Tsumari, Niigata prefecture is a modern art exhibit held throughout the year. The “Art Triennial” held every 3 years features permanent exhibits as well as new pieces, alongside various performances and workshops.
The way the artworks blend into the countryside feels so Japanese and really charming.
It’s not your usual “just stroll around and look” kind of exhibition.
Be prepared to actually use some energy here!
