About Hakone Open-Air Museum

Premier musée d'art en plein air du Japon, le Hakone Open-Air Museum a ouvert ses portes en 1969. Sur 70 000 mètres carrés de jardins aménagés, il réunit plus de 120 sculptures signées par des artistes de renommée internationale — Henry Moore, Niki de Saint Phalle — ainsi que par des créateurs japonais. Le site abrite des pavillons consacrés à Picasso et aux œuvres en vitrail, un bain de pieds alimenté par les sources thermales naturelles de la région, et une grande sculpture-jeu destinée aux enfants. Le musée se trouve dans la ville de Hakone, préfecture de Kanagawa, à environ 90 minutes de Tokyo en train.
