Okada Museum of Art
Kowakudani, Japan

Okada Museum offers a substantial indoor visit, with Japanese painting, East Asian ceramics and other decorative arts displayed across several floors. The exhibition programme changes, so check what is showing before you go. Outside, a wooded garden and a hot-spring footbath café provide a slower finish to the visit. Choose it when you want time with individual objects and room to explore, rather than trying to fit several museums into one afternoon.
