Tokugawa Art Museum

徳川美術館/Tokugawa Bijustukan

4/22-

Today's trip was pretty interesting. It was hard to take pictures, I had to "sneak" them. I feel a little bad about it, but I'm never going to go to that place again, so its ok. I mean I'm not selling these images, so it's all good. The art was really neat and interesting. The museum also had a zen garden you could see. Unfortunately I didn't because there wasn't enough time left.


The museum!!!!! Ta-da!

This is a game the ladies used to play back in the Edo period. Match the shells, its like a memory game.

Tale of Genji Replica. For those of you who don't know, The Tale of Genji is a classic work of Japanese Literature attributed to the Japanese noblewoman Murasaki Shikibu in the early 11th century, around the peak of the Heian Period. It is sometimes called the world's first novel.
