What other travelers are saying about Nagasaki Prefectural Art Museum
This museum is super clean high-end with a lot of creative art.
They have very clean facility and restroom.
I recommended for a quick visit. It is next to Marina wharf.
I had one free afternoon in Nagasaki, so I decided to visit Nagasaki Prefectural Art Museum. The building is designed by Kengo Kuma and it's beautifully designed. The signages are also very well designed. Highly recommended!
This was a very enjoyable art gallery. At the time of visiting there was a fantastic exhibit based on choral music which gave the place a hauntingly beautiful air.
The remaining galleries had some excellent examples of Japanese and Spanish landscape masters, along side some contemporary galleries. In addition, the view from the roof is wonderful.
There are places that is open to the public for free. Its nice to roam around the free areas and the rooftop garden. There is also a cafe in the 2nd floor. I like this museum :)
What a gem!!! Gallery space isn’t huge and is free and has a good run of Spanish art and another more of Japanese art. There are also special exhibitions you have to pay for but needn’t visit if you don’t want to.
There is a good small cafe / restaurant on the first floor with great views. The lunch offerings are good but run out by 1.30.
on the roof is a large area with some sculptures that gives you a free and spectacular view of Nagasaki.
The architecture is worth the trip alone!
The museum houses a diverse range of collections, including modern works by Nagasaki artists, Nagasaki-themed work, the largest collection of Spanish art in Japan, and various touring exhibitions from around the world.
Yes, there's a lovely cafe located within the Bridge Corridor that connects the museum's two separate buildings.
The museum is notable for its use of glass and rock, creating an airy and bright space. It's built across a canal with a Bridge Corridor connecting two separate buildings, offering unique views and spaces for visitors.
