A Day of Art & Blossoms in Meguro – Garden Views & Golden Moments

#cityplaybook

Meguro in spring is a dream. Between elegant architecture, peaceful gardens, and riverside cherry blossoms, it’s the kind of place where you don’t need to rush—just walk, look, and enjoy.

I started my day at the Tokyo Metropolitan Teien Art Museum, a former residence turned museum that blends art, design, and nature in the most beautiful way. Highlights? The serene Kōka teahouse, and sculptures like Ossip Zadkine’s “Dwelling” and Edouard-Marcel Sandoz’s “Reclining Panther”. Quiet, thoughtful, and totally inspiring.

For lunch, I stopped by Café TEIEN, tucked inside the museum. We shared an open-faced tartine set and a stylish sandwich “BENTO” set—simple, fresh, and beautifully plated. The sparkling wine? A bottle of BOTTEGA gold. Hard not to smile when your drink sparkles as much as the day itself.

In the afternoon, I walked along Meguro River, where cherry blossoms were in full bloom. Petals in the breeze, soft light through the trees—there’s nothing like Tokyo spring.

Why I recommend Meguro in spring:
・You get art, architecture, and nature all in one slow, beautiful day
・It’s elegant without trying too hard—just peaceful and pretty
