Rainy-Day Museums in Japan

When the rain changes your plans, a museum keeps the day going — no weather to worry about. Slow down with art, or dig into a science or history museum. Find indoor spots to enjoy on a rainy day, near home or on a trip, across Japan.

Indoor museums are a reliable plan during the rainy season and typhoon months — whether as a backup on a trip or a local day out. Browse by genre or city to find a comfortable place to spend a wet day.
