Tokyo Metropolitan Museum of Photography

Located in a redeveloped brewery complex in the Ebisu district, this is Japan's leading public museum dedicated to photography and the moving image. Its permanent collection spans the history of the medium from early daguerreotypes to contemporary work, both Japanese and international, and its multiple galleries stage a busy schedule of changing exhibitions and film screenings. Recently renovated, the museum anchors a garden plaza surrounded by shops, restaurants, and a photography library for the most comprehensive program of its kind.
