Asago Art Village, Sculpture garden in Asago, Japan.

Asago Art Village is a 30-hectare forested valley park below the Tataragi Dam in Asago, Hyogo Prefecture. Its core is the Asago Art Village Museum, designed by Shinichi Mochizuki, which shows sculptor Toshio Yodoi's life work indoors and in an outdoor sculpture area that borrows the dam as a backdrop. Two hot-spring lodging buildings, Tataragi Minori-kan and Harima Fureai-no-ie, stand on the grounds.

Construction of the Asago Art Village began before 1995 as part of the former Asago town's art project "Asago Art Park + Museum". The core museum, designed by Shinichi Mochizuki, was completed in 1999, and the whole park was finished in 2002. It received the Good Design Award in 2003.

The museum permanently displays the life's work of Toshio Yodoi, a sculptor from Asago and recipient of the Order of Culture, both indoors and in an open-air sculpture area that borrows the Tataragi Dam as a backdrop. Each year in late April and early May the outdoor sculpture area hosts Infiorata Asago, an event whose name refers to the Italian flower-petal pictures.

The park lies in the Tataragi Valley below Tataragi Dam, about 10 minutes by taxi from JR Bantan Line's Arai Station. The museum, outdoor sculpture area and the two hot-spring lodgings (Tataragi Minori-kan, Harima Fureai-no-ie) are spread through the grounds, so plan your route around them. The museum's outdoor sculpture area hosts Infiorata Asago from late April to early May.

The museum building was originally the office of Kansai Electric Power Company, which operates the adjacent Okutataragi pumped-storage power plant; the sculpture park was laid out over an eight-year preparation period. The museum's outdoor sculpture area borrows the Tataragi Dam as a backdrop, and the site won a gold medal at the IFPRA Nations in Bloom 2002 and a Good Design Award in 2003.
