Lonely Planet review

This exceptional collection includes some 1800 Japanese paintings dating from the Meiji Restoration and onward, of which around 50 are on display at any one time; exhibits change approximately every two months. Some names to look for: Hayami Gyoshū (1894-1935), whose Dancing Flames is an important cultural property; and Okumura Togyū (1889-1990), whose Cherry Blossoms at Daigoji Temple is a masterpiece in pastel colours. The museum is located on the ground floor of the KS Building.
