    Yamaguchi Pref. Yamaguchishi Kameyamachou 3-1
    Built on the site of the former Kameyama campus of the Faculty of Economics, Yamaguchi University, the Yamaguchi Prefectural Art Museum is a public art museum with a strong local flavor that is closely integrated with the local community. The Museum’s collections are oriented toward artists with a connection to Yamaguchi Prefecture; for example, they include works from Kazuki Yasuo’s “Siberia Series,” works by Kobayashi Wasaku, etc. The collections also include many outstanding Nihonga paintings (including the “Landscape Scroll After Kegong Gao,” which has been designated as an Important Cultural Property) and photographic works, etc. The Museum holds several exhibitions of works from its own collections and special exhibitions every year. The bright, cheerful cafe facing the central atrium is very popular with visitors.

    Yamaguchi Pref. Hagishi Hiyakomachi 586-1
    The Hagi Uragami Museum is a museum in Hagi City that is dedicated to Ukiyo-e woodblock prints, East Asian ceramics and ceramic art. The Museum was opened in 1996 to house a collection of items donated by businessman Uragami Toshiro (who was born in Hagi); it was awarded two stars in the Michelin Green Guide. There is a tearoom where visitors can enjoy drinking green tea out of Hagi-ware teacups, which is popular as a place to relax while enjoying viewing art at the Museum.

    Nice place, nice staff. Be careful though, they say they show the whole collection of Hokusai prints, when in reality, its just one from time to time.

    "This museum is located in the center of Misumi, Nagato City, a place of scenic beauty. It exhibits works by Yasuo Kazuki, a painter who left a great mark on post-war Japanese Western-style painting world. In the museum, his original atelier was restored to its original state.

The triennial exhibition offers a different style of art than the Siberia Series, which is based on the experience of internment in Siberia after World War II. The objects called ""toys,"" made from scrap wood, are also popular. It is said that he loved Misumi so much that he said, ""This is my earth."""

    This art museum is inside a renovated earthen-walled warehouse style home once owned by the Kumaya family, who prospered as royal purveyors for the Hagi domain.

    Yamaguchi Yamaguchi-shi Mizunouecho 5-27

    五重塔が有名な瑠璃光寺の西側に、洞春寺という古いお寺があります。その洞春寺の門のすぐとなりに、サイディングの外壁ののむら美術館がありました。 洞春寺の門がかなり歴史を重ねた古い建物なので、その対比が面白いですね。のむら美術館には、山口市内で酒造業営んでいた野村益治氏が収集した美術品が展示されているそうですが、私たちが訪れた2022年10月の日曜日はシャッターが閉じていて開いていませんでした。

Heading west along Japan’s largest island, Honshu, the very last prefecture you’ll reach is Yamaguchi, separated from Kyushu by a small strip of water known as the Kanmon Straits, which the far-reaching harbor city Shimonoseki looks over. With water at every turn, the seafood of Yamaguchi is an indisputable highlight, and we’re not talking just the usual fish dishes - the notorious fugu, or puffer fish, is a Japanese delicacy that was discovered in Yamaguchi prefecture, making it the best place to try it out.
