Travel Strategy
I really liked the works that were here, very different, I even watched a film about a room and the flies that live there by Apichatpong Weerasethakul when in my life would I have imagined that, too bad it was a cloudy day and the windows that looked out were all covered by clouds

The Asian New Art Exhibition currently on display systematically looks at Asian art from the perspective of Asians as a whole. This is the magnanimity that a major Asian country should have. I hope there will be more such exhibitions in China. You can actually see part of the night view on this floor. Children with limited budgets can see part of the night view on this floor and the lobby floor.
It's a beautiful night view, the best place to see the Tokyo Tower, the sky trees, the Rainbow Bridge in Tokyo Bay and so on. There will also be many exhibitions in the gallery. We just catch up with the beautiful girl fighters. They are very beautiful. Sen Art Museum and the prospecting platform on the 52nd floor are in one, with a pass of 1800 yen. A few hundred yen more.

The museum exhibits content about the lives of the Vietnamese (I think) people, as well as some artworks and Chinese explanations, but to be honest, it's not very interesting... My favorite thing is to go upstairs to see the scenery. You can see Tokyo Tower, which is very close, and Tokyo Skytree, which is a little further away. There is a free photo area when you enter the door where you can take pictures of Tokyo Skytree, but you can also choose a good angle to take pictures by following the signs around the 360-degree circle. It is very quiet and there are few people. The observation deck is worth a visit
The museum is located on the 53rd floor of Roppongi Tower. Tickets can be purchased for either the viewing platform or the observation deck. While the museum isn't very large, it often features themed exhibitions with diverse themes. Art lovers should definitely visit, but individual tastes vary!
