The Tokyo National Museum (TNM) is the oldest institution of its kind in Japan.  
TNM exhibits artworks, archaeological artifacts, and other cultural properties from Japan and other regions of Asia.  
We are further advancing the museum as a “Gateway to Japanese Culture” or “Face of Japan,” a place that provides accessible introductions to Japanese culture together with opportunities to become familiarized with Japanese traditions.

The only national art museum in Japan dedicated to Western art. Its permanent collection features the Matsukata Collection, which is centered on French art, including Impressionist paintings and sculptures by Rodin.

## Kyu-Iwasaki-tei Gardens

![kyuiwasaki_1200](https://hs.mytokyopass.com/hs-fs/hubfs/kyuiwasaki_1200.jpg?width=1200&height=800&name=kyuiwasaki_1200.jpg)

While the garden was built as the main residence of the Iwasaki family who was a founder of Mitsubishi in 1896, the Western and the Japanese style houses still exist. The Western style house was designed by the British architect Josiah Conder. You can see the sophisticated Japanese style architecture of the time from the Japanese house, and in particular, its large hall.
