✓Toyama Glass Art Museum & Library

A must-visit art attraction in Toyama City, a secret place where a library and an art museum merge, the "Glass Art Museum" designed by the famous Japanese architect Kengo Kuma has six floors. In addition to the various glass craft exhibitions in the museum, the entire building can be said to be the most magnificent work of art.

The most special thing about this building is that the first floor is the ticket hall, the second floor is the cultural and creative store, the third to fifth floors are the library area, and the sixth floor is the glass art museum. In other words, the Toyama City Library and the Glass Art Museum are integrated into one.

Here, you can enjoy browsing Japanese books and appreciate art works. Even if you don't understand Japanese, the design ingenuity of various places in the museum is enough to attract your attention.
