A really vast and expansive museum that focuses primarily on the history and culture of Japan. It's perhaps one of the greatest museums I've visited both in it's size and breadth of content. You can expect to find anything from ancient archeology to paintings and primitive textiles used throughout history.

They have exposed few works of art, 2 very old and forbidden from photographing. The exhibition is nice but again, when you go with expectations high and you realize you finished the whole museum in 20-30 min, is disappointing.
