There are tonnes of things to do in Tokyo, including some pretty spectacular museums. This list, on the other hand, is dedicated to the weirder and wackier exhibitions.

Ghibli Museum

The Ghibli museum is situated in the heart of the Mitaka suburbs and features beautiful exhibits from Studio Ghibli. The museum is set out so it feels as if you are stepping into a film, making the experience magical and unique.

Tokyo Trick Art Museum

The maze of optical illusions and 3D paintings will surely bring out your inner child and you can have so much fun with photos here, so bring a friend!

Museum of Sewerage

It might not be particularly glamorous, but the Museum of Sewerage is certainly one of a kind. If you want to do something unusual, there is no harm in checking this bizarre attraction out. Alternatively, if you’re just super into your sewerage, then it won’t disappoint.

Meguro Parasitological Museum

This unusual museum is dedicated entirely to the often neglected parasite. It boasts the world’s longest tapeworm at 8.8 meters. This icky museum is not for the faint of heart.

Shin-Yokohama Raumen Museum

This quirky museum is less about standing behind the line and more about jumping in front of it. It brings to life the Showa townscape so you can step straight into the gloomy, ramen filled past.
