[2025 Hakone Attraction] Travel Guide for Hakone Venetian Glass Museum (Glass Forest) (Updated Apr)

#Popular Attractions When you go to Hakone, in addition to enjoying the beautiful scenery of lakes and mountains, you will also go to the Art Gallery to take a look. Among the many art museums in Hakone, the Hakone Glass Museum is like another fashionable world with many beautiful attractions. It is the first dedicated Venetian glass museum in Japan. In addition to the many glass works on display, there is a lot to see, such as the gurgling water in the forest and the European-style garden. The most eye-catching feature of the garden is the crystal glass arch "Corridor of Light" leading to the "Venetian Glass Museum". About 160,000 crystal glasses sway in the breeze, guiding visitors into another world. The exhibition hall displays Venetian glass from the 15th to 19th centuries and modern glass art, which is very exciting.

Glass Forest Museum in Hakone, Kanagawa Prefecture. This museum is often featured on television. Venetian glass, which flourished in the early modern period, is on display here in abundance. All of the glass is well-preserved and complete, so I think this museum is popular with women. The center of the museum is like a garden, and various outdoor works are on display. If you look closely at the natural Japanese pampas grass, you will see a glass swallowtail butterfly! What a nice touch. When I looked at the photos later, I was surprised to see that they looked like I had traveled abroad. #besttrip2023

Although this place is not free, it is highly recommended to spend some money to come in and play, because it is worth it! This is an art museum that perfectly combines art and nature. As soon as you come in, you can feel the beautiful coexistence of nature, art and people. The cold sculptures are so vivid, as if they came alive. The outdoor tour routes are carefully designed, including climbing hills, crossing streams, and crossing cable bridges... It is very interesting and you can be influenced by art while having fun. In addition to the sculptures there are also many other works to admire. There is another must-visit place: the Picasso Pavilion (unfortunately you can’t take photos there). The museum has a large number of Picasso's paintings, ceramics, prints, handmade artworks... and there is a detailed video introducing his life and how he created his works. Very inspiring. It is a place where children are willing to stay for a long time. Ticket prices: Adults are 1,600 yen, and you can get a 40 yen discount with the Hakone Weekend Ticket. Children under 10 are free.

I went to the Glass Forest Museum in Hakone, Kanagawa Prefecture. Maybe because it was a weekday, it wasn't too crowded and I was able to enjoy the exhibition comfortably. However, there were a lot of people around the "Glass Fountain LA FONTANA DI VETRO" in the Venetian Glass Museum, so I had to wait my turn to take photos. Not only the glass works, but the overall atmosphere was like a castle, and it was a wonderful place.
