What other travelers are saying about TeamLab Borderless
About a 10 minute wait once you arrive.
You have to watch a quick video and how to go through the exhibits, that the rooms change and theres no path, you go at your own pace.
We enjoyed it a lot, spent about 4 hours in there and we still somehow couldn't find the Tea Room. I started to get Zenn'ed out but my partner loved it. There is a small resting area, and a water refill station by the bathrooms if you have a refillable water container.
Amazing displays. Only bothersome thing was the parents who let their kids run wild, screaming and damaging the displays. Staff would ask them nicely to not pull and bend pieces but the kids would ignore it to the point I was starting to get upset, as well as a few others trying to enjoy the displays.
Would recc as its a fun first experience and the artistic setups and displays were just amazing. My videos and pictures don't showcase it well enough.
Yes, you can take pictures in teamLab exhibitions. Photography is encouraged, but flash, tripods, and selfie sticks are usually prohibited to ensure a smooth and safe experience for all visitors.
In teamLab Planets, you'll be asked to remove your shoes for certain sections, so wearing socks is a good idea. For teamLab Borderless, shoes are generally worn throughout the exhibit, but comfortable footwear is recommended as you'll be on your feet for an extended period.
teamLab Borderless is a vast, interactive digital art museum where art installations flow into one another and interact with the visitors, creating an endless, borderless world. teamLab Planets is a more body-immersive exhibition where visitors walk through water and interact with installations in a more tactile, physical way. The themes and experiences of the two exhibitions are distinct, with Planets being more focused on the body and Borderless on the concept of a boundary-less world.
teamLab Borderless is housed in a 10,000-square-meter space in the Mori Building Digital Art Museum, making it one of the largest digital art museums in the world. It features numerous interactive artworks spread across various rooms and spaces.
There is no strict time limit for how long you can stay at teamLab Borderless. Visitors are generally allowed to explore the exhibitions at their own pace. On average, visitors spend about 2 to 3 hours, but you can stay longer if you wish to fully immerse yourself in the experience.
An amazing place you MUST go! You will have a totally new and unforgettable experience. There are many rooms in the place, each has its special lights and music, some are so addictive, I can stay there and watch the lights keep changing to lots of different gorgeous pictures for whole day.
Everyone is so enjoyable, no matter kids or adults. You can miss senso-ji, but you can’t miss this!
This experience truly felt out of this world due to how immersive it was. Located on the lower level of the Mori Building, TeamLab Borderless is somewhat tucked away, but easy to find. Free lockers are available upon entry, which was very convenient.
There is no set path through the exhibit—you explore at your own pace. This allowed us to revisit our favorite rooms, though it’s easy to miss some, so be sure to explore thoroughly.
We booked the first time slot of the day and were glad we did. It was quiet at first, but after about 45 minutes the rooms became noticeably more crowded. While this felt like a “one-and-done” experience for us, I would still highly recommend it if you have a morning available.
I really enjoy and have a wonderful time at Boarderless.
It’s a little confusing to get there but it’s worth your time. My family and I went there early for the 9am start, on a Thursday morning. It gets busy later on.
It’s a large indoor light art projection interactive museum. It’s very nice, it’s a little dim inside, very trippy experience.
There is many rooms and hidden rooms, making it like a labyrinth. There’s no map or set paths, so it’s like choosing your own path situation.
It’s kids and elderly friendly.
I enjoy the waterfall room, the lamps room, the 1st flowers room and sea animals drawing projections room. Also l like how the projection changes over time. Through animals, music, plants and people.
I had spend 2.5 hours here and had many photos opportunity. It’s better with fewer people around to take photos, it’s harder to do so later in the day.
Also it’s nice they provide free lockers currently.
I would come back again for sure.
This was a great experience! But be prepared to spend at least 2-3 hours inside exploring, taking it in, and appreciating the art. I also recommend going as early as possible. I bought tickets a bit late (aka 3 days before the day we were available) and only noon and after were available. I bought the 12-1230. I checked multiple times a day and it wasn’t until the night before that an 08-0830am slot opened up and I changed our reservation.
We got there around 0820 and there were already some people inside. It was nice and open for ~30-45min and after that, people started pouring in. It was still nice but some rooms started to get crowded. If you want nice pictures, go at opening time.
It was a fun experience walking around, discovering the rooms, and being mesmerized at the art. Some of the art changes after a few minutes so we revisited a few rooms. When we thought we were done, we discovered two more rooms. We spent around 3 hours in there. We only left because we got hungry. There were free lockers inside and umbrella locks.
There were rules posted about not running. But in one of the large rooms where you can sit, relax, and watch the art, there were a few kids running around through the people sitting down and yelling. It kind of ruined the immersive experience of that room. The workers didn’t do anything to stop them.
It’s less interactive than teamLab planets. But still equally a great experience in my opinion!
