The Mori Art Museum was founded by real estate magnate Minoru Mori, renowned for designing some of Asia’s most iconic buildings, including the Shanghai World Financial Centre and Roppongi Hills in Tokyo. Located on the 53rd and 54th floors of the Mori Tower, this museum offers stunning views alongside its fascinating art collections.
The Mori Art Museum primarily showcases temporary exhibitions of contemporary art, focusing on Asian artists, though it occasionally features works from artists around the world. The museum’s exhibitions are curated to engage, challenge, and inspire visitors while remaining accessible to all. With six galleries spread across 2,000 square meters of floor space, the museum offers a dynamic setting for its wide-ranging exhibits.
Situated at the heart of Roppongi Hills, the museum typically operates seven days a week, though it may close for special events or when no exhibitions are being held.
Additionally, the Tokyo City View, located on the 52nd floor of the Mori Tower, offers breathtaking panoramic views of Tokyo and beyond. Visitors can enjoy the spectacular cityscape, including a view of Mount Fuji on clear days, making it a perfect complement to your visit to the Mori Art Museum. The Sky Deck, an outdoor observation deck, provides an even more expansive view of the city.
For easy access, exit 1C at Roppongi Station brings you right to Roppongi Hills. The museum is accessible via Tokyo Metro’s Hibiya Line (station H-04) or Toei’s Oedo Line (station E23). Nearby attractions like the National Arts Centre and the Suntory Museum at Tokyo Midtown are just a five to ten-minute walk away, offering visitors even more opportunities to explore Tokyo’s rich cultural scene.
