Geisha museums and quarters in Kyoto

One of the most famous museums in Japan. It has a collection of not only Japanese art, but also art from other Asian countries. Half of the exhibits have the status of national treasures of Japan. Many of them used to be kept in the palaces of emperors, ancient temples, residences and private collections. There is also a large archive of ancient photographic material.
The grounds are interesting, too, with ponds and a garden.

The museum features many trains from different eras, from the inception of rail transport in Japan to the present day. You can get inside some of the modes of transport and see how they are built. There is a part of the open-air museum with old steam locomotives.
