Tokyo is chock full of museums, galleries and public art installations, but the sheer mass of the city means it’s hard to cram in new and sizable art attractions – unless you build one underground. If you’re up for a proper cultural excursion to see rare paintings and site-specific installations, it’s worth making a day trip to the nearby prefectures of Chiba or Kanagawa for art destinations where you can also stretch your legs in nature.
From a farm with two Yayoi Kusama installations to a museum with a natural hot spring foot bath and another with a dedicated Rothko room (like the one in Tate Modern in London), here are the best places to visit on your next day off.
