The National Museum of Western Art is a one-minute walk from the Park Exit of JR Ueno Station. The building was designed by Le Corbusier (1959) and was inscribed on the UNESCO World Heritage Lite (2016) There are also sculptures in the front garden, including Rodin’s Thinker and Gates of Hell. The highlights of the permanent exhibition are the works by Monet, Renoir, Picasso, Cezanne, Gauguin, and Van Gogh, which are located near the exit.
The Fee for permanent exhibition is inexpensive at 500 yen for adults and 250 yen for college students. Furthermore, high school students and younger and those over the age of 65 are free. I thought that even 1,000 yen was inexpensive considering the content of the exhibition.
Free admission days are the 2nd Sunday of every month, International Museum Day (May 18) and Culture Day (November 3)
