One of the first associations that come to mind at the mention of Tokyo is of course, bonsai. Consequently, you can visit a museum dedicated to this particular art in the capital of Japan. The museum is a private collection of Reiji Takagi, established in “Meiko Shokai”. By the way, there is a magnificent garden with a pond on the roof of the building – another interesting place in Yoko Ono’s hometown. You can find an interesting museum in the Minato region, where the Meguro Parasitological Museum is located. Fans of “Alien” and “Dunes” will be simply over the moon by the opportunity to visit this place. The most significant “artifact” of the museum can be considered to be a worm, whose length reaches about 8 meters 80 centimeters. In total, there are 45,000 exhibits collected in the museum. For those who do not like this kind of creatures, please note that the museum’s exhibits are not alive.
In 2002, the Advertising Museum was opened. Among its exhibits are samples of advertising (there are more than 150,000 copies). It is worth mentioning that the so-called “ancient” advertisement is also presented here – after all, it has existed for a long time, this is not an innovation of the 20th century. The museum is divided into several sections depending on the era. You will find it fascinating to visit the Samurai Museum too, where there are many amusing exhibitions, and all this is so visitors can better understand the culture of Japan. Also in the hometown of Akira Kurosawa there is Madame Tussauds Museum, where you can make out figures of celebrities like Michael Jackson, Steve Jobs, Angelina Jolie, Brad Pitt, Marilyn Monroe, and Tom Cruise.
