This specialized museum in a quiet corner of the Shoto residential district holds one of Japan's finest private collections of East Asian ceramics, assembled by a businessman with a passion for porcelain. Its strength lies in Japanese wares from renowned kilns and in Chinese pieces, displayed in intimate galleries that let visitors appreciate the fine painting and glazes up close. Rotating exhibitions draw on thousands of objects, and the calm setting away from the crowds offers a contemplative experience for collectors.
