Shoto / Shibuya

A quieter Shibuya, seen through ceramics.

Leave the busiest shopping streets for a focused ceramic-art museum in residential Shoto. Toguri Museum offers changing displays that reward attention to painted surfaces, forms and the differences between individual vessels.

Let one object slow you down

Instead of trying to memorise every type of pottery, choose a shape or pattern and compare it across the displays. This is a useful stop for anyone who has enjoyed browsing tableware and wants more context.

Leave room for the neighbourhood

The museum works well as the main cultural stop of a Shibuya afternoon. Opening hours and prices shown here follow the current exhibition; check the official programme for the dates of your trip.
