Fodor's Review:

Kite flying is an old tradition in Japan. The collection here includes examples of every shape and variety from all over the country, hand-painted in brilliant colors with figures of birds, geometric patterns, and motifs from Chinese and Japanese mythology. You can call ahead to arrange a kite-making workshop (in Japanese) for groups of children.

  • Cost: ¥210
  • Open: Mon.-Sat. 11-5
  • Subway: Tozai subway line, Nihombashi Station (Exit C5)
