About Yugawara Museum of Art
The Yugawara Museum of Art shows painters linked to the town, along with changing exhibitions, in a building in the onsen district. It's small enough to see properly in under an hour. The garden is a quieter stop in the daytime.
On the ground floor, MUSEUM CAFE and garden serves tofu lunches from a local tofu maker on a terrace over the garden, and there's a foot bath by the stream. It makes an easy rainy-day stop.
