Kyoto HBS Museum, Art museum in Kamigyō-ku, Japan.

The Kyoto HBS Museum exhibits Buddhist art pieces and religious artifacts in a modern setting within the cultural district of northern Kyoto.

The museum, which started operations in July 2012, represents a continuation of Buddhist educational traditions dating back to Edo period temple schools.

The museum maintains monthly art markets on the 25th, where local artisans display and sell handmade crafts reflecting Japanese artistic traditions.

Located near Randen Kitano-hakubaicho Station, the museum provides free admission and contains exhibitions about Buddhist teachings and their applications.

The museum functions as a contemporary version of traditional temple schools through workshops called terakoya scholar programs.
