★★★★★5 months agoPlease visit this place! When we visited that museum we thought it will be just Japanese art; it is so much more. There were two exhibitions on March 22, 2026. One on Andrzej Wajda, who was the founder of this museum, and his connections to Japan. I learned so much more about him, beyond his work as a famous movie director. The second one was on a fascinating Japanese architect- Shigeru Ban and his social impact. Even if you are not interested in architecture you will find it worth visiting. And there is a very nice walk to get there!
