The Kubota Itchiku Museum of Art was opened in 1994 by Itchiku Kubota, a dyeing artist who was fascinated by Tsuji-ga-hana, a type of dyeing popular in the Muromachi period (1336-1573), and wanted to preserve for posterity the many works he revived as Itchiku Tsuji-ga-hana in the modern age.
The museum's main gate is a combination of several types of doors used in ancient Indian castles, and the museum shop offers a wide range of items that visitors can only purchase here, such as a tea set with a view of the seasonal Ryumon Waterfall, and accessories made of dragonfly beads, which Kubota Itchiku loved. The museum shop, which can only be found here, is a place where visitors can enjoy a sense of comfort and relaxation.ADDRESS 2255 Kawaguchi, Fujikawaguchiko-machi, Minamitsuru-gun, Yamanashi, Japan 401-0304 PHONE 0555-76-8811 E-MAIL info@itchiku-museum.com ACCESS By train
