Suwa Garasunosato Museum

The Suwa Garasunosato Museum contains 20,000 glass products, seasonal displays, and permanent exhibits throughout multiple exhibition halls and craft spaces.

The museum opened in December 2012 as a center for glass art appreciation, continuing the regional tradition of Japanese glassmaking techniques and artistry.

Japanese glass artists regularly display their creations at the museum, contributing to the preservation and evolution of glass artistry in the Nagano region.

The museum operates daily from 9:00 to 18:00, with admission fees of 500 yen for high school students and adults, while younger visitors enter free.

The museum houses Japan's largest crystal ball and a glass and gold artwork valued at 200 million yen within its triangular-roofed structure.
