Can imagine the gardens being absolutely stunning in the fall! :)YTSLhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09930487923185001591noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3289278000277019122.post-90087059939560922852016-12-19T12:23:17.466+08:002016-12-19T12:23:17.466+08:00Not crowded!?

Maybe that's just Koyo season, but the armies of Japanese tourists were out on full force, even on a weekday.<br /><br />PaulPaulhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00043097281088399947noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3289278000277019122.post-46298887307385357302016-12-18T23:31:27.803+08:002016-12-18T23:31:27.803+08:00Hi Paul --

Both that artist and the Adachi Museum deserve far more accolades outside of Japan than they have got, I believe. On the other hand, because they haven't yet, my visit to the art museum was not all that crowded and consequently very pleasant indeed... ;bYTSLhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09930487923185001591noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3289278000277019122.post-30909238300067038672016-12-18T15:35:14.861+08:002016-12-18T15:35:14.861+08:00Yokoyama Taikan!

It was only after getting thru a third of the artwork and exhibits that I realized I should have allowed for more than just a couple hours at the museum. Probably could have spent the entire day there without getting bored!Paulhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00043097281088399947noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3289278000277019122.post-84147940548120643852015-05-24T22:27:13.427+08:002015-05-24T22:27:13.427+08:00Hi sarah sbk --

If I lived close to the museum, I'd go there like once a month just for the gardens!YTSLhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09930487923185001591noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3289278000277019122.post-12702230701150295272015-05-24T19:43:01.234+08:002015-05-24T19:43:01.234+08:00Hi again ytsl,

Too bad about the limitation of having to look through glass...<br /><br />This museum and the Shimane Art Museum might alone justify a trip to Japan...The Adachi Museum website describes the gardensBillnoreply@blogger.com
