Hakone Museum of Art

The Hakone Museum of Art displays over 4,000 ceramic pieces within a structured complex that merges architectural elements with natural mountain surroundings.

Mokichi Okada established this cultural institution in June 1952, designing both the building and its surrounding gardens to create an integrated artistic experience.

The museum maintains a collection of traditional tea ceremony vessels that demonstrate the refined techniques of Japanese ceramic craftsmanship through different periods.

Visitors can reach the museum through regular bus services from Gora Station, with the facility offering wheelchair access and English information materials.

The museum grounds feature seasonal garden areas where visitors can observe different plants blooming throughout spring, summer, autumn, and winter months.
