The park has large open spaces and walking trails where you can stroll around, admire the art, and soak in the beauty of nature. There are also rest areas and an observation deck, so if you get tired, you can relax and enjoy a peaceful moment.

Nezu Museum
Located in a prime location in Aoyama, a sophisticated area of Tokyo, it is one of the few private museums in Japan with a history dating back to before World War II. The museum has a collection of approximately 7,600 Japanese and Oriental antiquities (as of the end of December 2021), including 7 National Treasures, 88 Important Cultural Properties, and 94 Important Art Objects.
I highly recommend relaxing at the café in the Japanese garden after your visit. It's a great spot to soak in the artistic atmosphere.

Watari Museum of Contemporary Art
Opened in September 1990, this private museum was designed by the renowned Swiss architect Mario Botta-his only architectural project in Japan. The striking exterior, characterized by wide, wing-like forms and distinctively striped walls of granite and concrete, has become an iconic local landmark.
Besides its regular temporary exhibitions, the Watari-um Museum of Contemporary Art also has a permanent collection featuring works by both Japanese and international artists. The variety of art on display is fantastic—definitely a must-visit for anyone who loves the art world.

Shikotsu Lake Lakeside Kitchen Tonton
Located in Shikotsu-Toya National Park, just about a 30-minute drive from New Chitose Airport, this eatery is a must-visit spot right opposite the Lake Shikotsu Visitor Center.
The kokanee sashimi and other local dishes here are really delicious. Everything is super fresh, and you get to taste local ingredients. Highly recommended!
