Fodor's Review:
You don't have to be a ceramics connoisseur to be thoroughly absorbed by the beauty and refinement of the works displayed here. The museum is within Naka-no-shima Koen, the city's oldest park (opened in 1891), and houses more than 900 pieces of Chinese, Korean, and Japanese ceramics. The collection, one of the finest in the world, includes 15 works that have been designated National Treasures or Important Cultural Properties. To get here take the Sakai-suji subway line to Kita-hama or the Mido-suji subway line to Yodoya-bashi and walk north across the Tosabori-gawa to the museum.
