Kyoto Railway Museum
Take your time in the outdoor area—there are some beautiful displays and photo ops. I rushed through it but ended up wishing I had stayed longer to appreciate everything!
Try visiting on a weekday, preferably Tuesday or Wednesday, to avoid the bigger crowds. I found it way more enjoyable with less waiting time for exhibits!
National Museum of Kyoto
Plan to visit on a weekday, especially in the morning around 10 AM. The crowd was definitely thinner, and I could enjoy the exhibits without feeling rushed.
Don't miss the special exhibitions! I accidentally skipped one that had some incredible artifacts. Check ahead for what's on display during your visit.
Kyoto International Manga Museum
i suggest setting aside at least 2-3 hours. i thought i’d whip through in an hour, but i got lost in so many amazing titles. time flies!
National Museum of Contemporary Art
Municipal Museum of Art
My advice is to check out the gift shop! They had some really unique items and art-inspired souvenirs that you won’t find anywhere else. I still regret not grabbing a couple of those prints while I was there
