  • Tokyo National Museum
    Ⅱ Outline of the National Institutes for Cultural Heritage The Independent Administrative Institution (IAI), National Institutes for Cultural Heritage, was formed in April 2007 through the merging of the IAI National Museums (Tokyo National Museum, Kyoto National Museum, Nara National Museum, and Kyushu National Museum) and the IAI National Research Institutes for Cultural Properties (Tokyo National Research Institute for Cultural Properties and Nara National Research Institute for Cultural Properties), all of which share the same mission: the conservation and utilization of cultural properties. With the addition of the International Research Centre for Intangible Cultural Heritage in the Asia-Pacific Region, which was established in October 2011, the National Institutes for Cultural Heritage now comprise a total of seven separate institutions. Japan’s cultural properties are the precious assets of the Japanese people. In order to preserve and utilize these properties more effectively and efficiently under unified management, each ofthe seven existing institutions plays the following roles: Tokyo National Museum Kyoto National Museum Nara National Museum As Japan’s foremost museum in the The Kyoto National Museum collects, Nara National Museum collects, pre- humanities field, Tokyo National Mu- preserves, manages, and exhibits serves, manages, and displays cultural seum collects, preserves, manages, cultural properties, while also properties, while also conducting re- and displays cultural properties from conducting research and providing search and providing educational pro- across Japan and other Asian regions, educational programs.

Come to Tokyo and you are guaranteed an unforgettable experience. 5 Reasons to Choose Tokyo for School Trips 1 Safety and Security Any destination you choose for a school trip must be safe and it must provide a sense of security. According to the “Safe Cities Index 2017” report compiled by UK-based news magazine The Economist, Tokyo ranks as the safest major city in the world.

  • Tokyo National Museum
    Ⅲ Activities of Each Institution Tokyo National Museum As Japan’s representative museum in the humanities field, Tokyo National Museum collects, preserves, manages, and displays cultural properties from across Japan and other Asian re- gions, while also conducting research and providing educational programs. Tokyo National Museum was established in 1872 and has the longest history among all museums in Japan. Our collection contains more than 114,000 items, including many National Treasures and Important Cul- tural Properties. We collect, preserve, restore and display tangible cultural properties from across Japan and other Asian regions. We also conduct research into these properties and promote understanding of them through educational activities. At Tohaku (our nickname for the Tokyo National Museum), April 2014 saw the opening of the Main Gate Plaza, as part of the redevelopment of the area around the museum’s main entrance. The Main Gate Plaza incorporates an information desk, ticket counters, a museum shop and a nursing room; this new fa- cility presents a warm welcome to visitors. In the regular exhibitions, Rooms 15-19 in the Honkan building have had new cases installed with special high-transmission, low-reflectance glass, which makes it possible to view the exhibits more clear- ly, creating an enhanced exhibition environment. In addition, special self-guided tours are now available using the museum’s “Tohaku Navi” guide application, along with various other new measures to help im- prove the visitor experience. Besides its exhibitions and displays, the museum also offers a wide range of different programs in- ZENIYA Masami cluding hands-on activities, guided tours, and workshops.
