It isn’t just the two-storied black exterior, reminiscent of a sculptor’s earthen clay that makes the Asakura Sculpture Museum an absolute must-see. Just peer down from the top story to the gardens below. Truly magnificent! Although there’s no place to sit down and enjoy a cup of tea, the fusion of East and West in architectural design perfectly expresses the author’s feelings, making it a place to free yourself from the grind of everyday life.
