2025 Nagi Travel Guide: Must-see attractions, popular food, hotels, transportation routes (updated in July)

This time we will introduce "Nagi Museum of Contemporary Art 🎨How to avoid crowds✨"! .Nagi Museum of Contemporary Art is an art museum where architecture and art are integrated in Nagi Town, Okayama Prefecture 🎨It has become a very popular spot on social media, so much so that you have to wait in line to take photos... 🥺This time we will introduce how to avoid crowds at such #tourist spots! Before that, we will introduce the museum ☺️.The works are permanently installed in three exhibition rooms called "Earth", "Moon" and "Sun", and I think many people have seen the work "Sun" in particular in ①②③ 🥺.①②③"Sun" has a very fantastic silhouette reflected in a round space like a clay pipe, and the actual exhibition is also a very mysterious space ☺️.④"Sun Anteroom" is an exhibition room with a tilted black cylinder in the center of the room ☺️The walls are decorated with many snapshots of people living in Nagi Town, expressing a "sense of security", and the black cylinder in the center of the room expresses an eerie "sense of anxiety". 🥺.⑤⑥ "Moon" is a room where sound reverberates, making you feel as if you are on the moon☺️The interior of the room is inorganic, making it an exhibition room where you can enjoy "listening" rather than "seeing"🤔.⑦ "Earth" is an exhibition room made of stainless steel wire, and exhibits works that express light to darkness, and yang to shadow🎨The works are both indoors and outdoors, and are inspired by the earth, such as the wind, sun and shadow🤔.At such popular spots, there are often so many people that you can't take the photos you want🤔.We'll show you how to avoid the crowds! ✨My personal choice is right after the museum opens and right before it closes✌️. I went right before it closed in the middle of Golden Week, and I was able to take photos for about 30 minutes with the place to myself😳. The opening hours are 9:30-17:00, and it was pretty empty when I arrived around 16:00🤔. This method can also be used at museums and events, so I hope everyone will take advantage of it☺️. Why not try to avoid the crowds, which no one likes, even if just a little☺️✨.📍#Nagi Museum of Contemporary Art Address: 708-1323 441 Toyosawa, Nagi-cho, Katsuta-gun, Okayama Prefecture Opening hours: 09:30-17:00 Cost: Adults and university students 700 yen High school students 500 yen Middle and elementary school students 300 yen Recommendation: The silhouette photos you can take in the "Sun" exhibition room are fantastic☺️ There are also "Earth" and "Moon" exhibition rooms, and you can enjoy the sound, so please check them out✨⚠ Note: It may be empty just after opening or just before closing, so we recommend going at those times☺️ . #NagiMuseumofContemporaryArt #besttrip2023

Nagi MOCA (Nagi Museum of Contemporary Art) in Nagi Town, Okayama Prefecture, features three exhibition rooms designed by Arata Isozaki: "Sun," "Moon," and "Earth." The Sun Room is also a popular photo spot. It is positioned so that the central axis of the room is exactly aligned with the north-south axis. This allows light to enter the room from the front, creating beautiful silhouette photos that look like paintings. Outside, contemporary art pieces are scattered across the grassland, making it seem like an open-air art museum. In the silence, the scenery and art come together, leaving you with a pleasant aftertaste that can only be experienced here.

A contemporary art museum in Nagi-cho, Okayama Prefecture. It's a museum where you can take great photos, known only to those in the know. In reality, it's difficult to walk straight because it's at an angle. It's a little dangerous in heels. If you want to take a photo with yourself in the middle, it's better to go with a friend. Tripods are difficult. #0yentravelFebruary2025 #domestictraveltactics #NagimachiContemporaryArtMuseum #artmuseum #Okayama

A mysterious space that will make your sense of balance go haywire🪐 I had a sense of déjà vu, so I looked up the creator and found out he was the same person who created the Reversible Destiny Lofts in Mitaka and the Reversible Destiny Park in Yoro, Gifu😳 This contemporary art museum is located in a small town halfway between the border between Tottori and Okayama prefectures, close to Hyogo prefecture, but don't underestimate it. The architecture is wonderful and there were many interesting contemporary art pieces. There weren't many pieces, but it was well worth seeing👏🏻 . . . 📍Nagi Museum of Contemporary Art 🗺Tottori, Japan 🕑9:30-17:00 💤Monday 💰¥700 #tripdomestictravel #wintertrip #museum

#FuriTabiWinter An art museum in Nagi-cho, Okayama Prefecture. Is 700 yen really enough for an admission fee?! You can see such amazing art. The Room of the Sun (The Place of Omnipresence, Nagi's Ryoanji Temple, the Architectural Body) is famous, but it was far more majestic and beautiful than I had imagined from looking at the photos. It makes me want to take photos! I want to go again💭 I also highly recommend the canelé shop, which is about a 5-minute walk away. It's a famous shop that recently moved to this location👀 If you're in the area, I recommend you stop by◎

Nagi Town in eastern Okayama Prefecture Further back in a quiet residential area, there is the Nagi Town Museum of Contemporary Art, with its beautiful green grass The museum itself is quite small, but the exhibits are quite unique The themes are the following three: ・The Sun - A place of omnipresence, Nagi's Ryoanji Temple, and the architectural body ・The Moon - HISASHI - An addendum ・The Earth - Utsurohi - A moment of movement The particularly popular "Sun" room is at the top of a thin, black, cylindrical staircase In the cylindrical, tilted space (which looks like a silver drum can lying on its side from the outside), Ryoanji's rock garden is arranged on both walls, and there is a seesaw on the ceiling The south-facing front is dazzling, and it is said to show a pattern of Onmyodo (the Tai Chi diagram) It was an indescribable floating feeling, or a sense of balance being disturbed, a feeling I had never experienced before The "Moon" room is a simple, pure white space with a narrow back This place also has a slightly sense of balance It was a unique space that seemed to be moving. The "Earth" installation was installed in the courtyard of the passageway leading from the entrance to the "Moon" and "Sun". A large arc of wire was stretched over the water basin and gravel. The theme of "Change" was from light to dark. I felt a sense of "Ah, I see," as the wind and air flow and the movement of the water basin moved. Regardless of whether I was able to grasp each theme, I thought it was a genuinely interesting installation. Also, it was definitely less crowded on weekdays! There were quite a few times when it was reserved for private use. The parking lot is also large, so I recommend it. #tripdomestictravel #OkayamaPrefecture #artmuseum #photogenicspot

Nagi Museum of Contemporary Art is located in a small town in the north of Okayama Prefecture. The museum itself is compact, but there are exhibits that utilize the entire space✨ Until 2024/11/24 (Sun), there are plenty of exhibits in collaboration with the Okayama Forest Art Festival, so there's plenty to see! There is also a library used by local people on the second floor, which also has exhibits from the Forest Art Festival🌳 #0 yen travel November 📍Address: 441 Toyosawa, Nagi-cho, Katsuta-gun, Okayama Prefecture 708-1323 🕰️Business hours: 9:30-17:00 (closed on Mondays)

One of my favorite museums is the Naoshima Contemporary Art Museum. It consists of three exhibition rooms named Sun, Moon, and Earth, and is the world's first experiential museum where the artworks and the building are semi-permanently integrated as public architecture. Each piece is truly wonderful, and you can't help but sit and stay in the space for a while. Currently, the Forest Art Festival in Okayama is being held. It ends on November 24. There is also a library inside the building. The skylight and design of the library were very beautiful.

#thingstodo It's a place full of sacred atmosphere. The mossy feeling is the best. You can go to the side of the main hall by car, but in order to taste the atmosphere, I think it's better to go through the torii gate and climb the stairs. However, the parking space is narrow and only 2 or 3 cars can be stopped.It's really good! I've been there many times, but I can't usually sit upright, but even if my knees are bad, I can climb up the stairs for some reason. ( You can drive up, but it's most recommended to dare to use the stairs.) I feel like I'm being pushed on my back. If you want to taste the mysterious atmosphere, it's best to go early in the morning or at dusk after the rain! The air is clear and you can feel the power even with your sense of smell. If you have a sharp five senses, it's an atmosphere where you can meet God. Self-service goshuin is good, and the toilet is also equipped. After that, the women's toilet will open the door properly. Because it was said that it could not be used by other people's reviews! You should also go to a nearby waterfall as a set! If you have plenty of time, it's better to stop the car a little ahead and walk along the mountain road!!

I went to the Nagi Museum of Contemporary Art, a hidden gem that is slowly gaining attention on social media! The museum is a place where the artworks and the building are one, and inside there are three exhibition rooms named "Sun," "Moon," and "Earth." The entire exhibition room is one piece of art, and it's an immersive experience✨ The recommended photo spot is the first piece, "Sun." You can take a photo that makes you feel like you're one with the artwork. 📍Access 441 Toyosawa, Nagi-cho, Katsuta-gun, Okayama Prefecture #Okayama #Museum
