JAPAN - Matsumoto is gaining popularity among foreigners in Japan. Besides being close to Tokyo and having a lively town vibe, this Nagano city has two standout attractions.
Firstly, Matsumoto boasts one of Japan's oldest surviving castles, built during the Edo Period. It adds a historical charm to the city. Secondly, it's the birthplace of Yayoi Kusama, a famous Japanese artist. Her artworks, showcased at the Matsumoto City Museum of Art, significantly boost the city's profile.
Imagine starting your day at Sioribi Cafe, just across from the museum. Known for its cozy library feel and comfy sofas, the cafe serves delicious coffee with buttered toast. The place reflects Matsumoto's mix of small-town history and youthful urban energy.
The Matsumoto City Museum of Art is a must-visit, especially if you're a fan of Yayoi Kusama. The museum displays her work, including canvas paintings, polka dot walls, the famous pumpkin, and infinity rooms.
In Matsumoto, history, art, and a modern vibe come together seamlessly.
