The Teamo Teamlab Planets Museum was not the tourism museum that I was expecting

Soon the Teamlab planets made a name for themselves after opening their doors in 2018. It is currently carrying Guinness World Register For the most visited museum for one group or an artist, it brings more than 2.5 million visitors from April 2023 to March 2024.

The second famous site in Tokyo, known as Teamlab Borderless, focuses on digital art.

Both available by Teamlab, an international artistic group that includes artists, animation, engineers, mathematics and architects among its specialists. Together, they work to “explore the relationship between the self and the world,” according to the museum website, although the global brand director, Takashi Kudo, said they have a greater goal.

“If these exhibitions are not able to reach an emotional height, we have failed,” he said. New York Times last year. “We have to reach the hearts of people.”

TEAMLAB PLANETS provides time holes from 9 am to approximately 8:30 pm for each travel code recommended to visit the museum when it opens to overcome the crowds (and they have fewer people in your Instagram clips), which means that each morning opening was sold when you tried to book tickets about a week ago.

I imagined that the night openings may be less crowded, so I booked two tickets at 7:30 pm, the total was 8800 yen, or about 61 dollars.

Both travel blogs and Google documents have noticed our friends that part of the museum’s experience involves walking through water.

We have been keen to wear shoes that can quickly slip and pants that can rotate easily. Since the floors are reflected, a number of blogs recommended skirts or short dresses. Short pants are also available for rent for free if you need them.

Soon we crossed the warehouse gates, which has an area of ​​10,000 square feet, as we were welcomed by a tall sculpting entitled “The World of Fire molecules that chase the sky and the earth.” A lit piece changes, glowing with red and yellow fire, with people’s remains near it.

More art can be found in Vegan Ramen Uzu, the ramen store in the museum. I was hoping that I had not eaten dinner in advance because a friend later told me that this is one of her favorite experiences in Ramin in both Tokyo!

The museum is divided into three sections: water forests, athletics, and garden. The forest department, which was opened in January, added 20 new exhibitions to the nine original.

We left our bags and shoes in the free tanks, which came with keys that we can wear as bracelets. After that, we walked down as we were heading to the water gallery, and our feet retreated calmly.

After walking almost black, the world opens up to a dazzling room full of hundreds of sparkling LED lights. They seem to continue forever, a trick from the eye that has been achieved from the identical floor.

It may be because I am part of the eye shadow and the exhibition reminds me of the highest makeup bag, but how do you not like the beautiful lights? I was conceited.

As with all exhibits in Teamlab Planets, the lights are affected by the presence of those around them. The attendees who download the Teamlab Planets app can choose the colors that illuminate. It allows the piece to develop constantly, ensuring that it is not the same.

We walked to the dark room where the rainbow swimmed from the digital kuy fish in the warm water around us.

Every time the koy’s fish collided with our legs, it turned into a beautiful flower. According to the museum website, these flowers change depending on the season in which you visit the exhibition.

My friend and I laughed like children while we wandered in the huge areas, which changed the color whenever they touched them.

The bright, blue and green pink room glowed while we were bounced and pushed the fields around us.

We joined a group of people lying on the ground to see the digital flowers surrounding us silently. The exhibition displays different flowers in the circle of full life during its growth, flourishing and dying.

The quiet moment was a nice watershed before we were walking in the most active “Athletics Forest” section.

“Athletics Forest” is the Neon Stadium. The colored and interactive digital exhibition invited us to climb the waterfall, swing through a herd of birds, and slip to the fruit field.

At this time, my phone battery died, and it couldn’t come in a perfect moment, as I completely overwhelmed myself.

While she bounced on the rotating fields and balanced on the steps of the step, I felt to return to the games that I used to compensate on the field, when the only entertainment available was our imagination and some monkey bars.

My friend and I were happy to stumble a table full of people who color the flowers, butterflies, snakes and lizards. It was a full day to see the city’s landmarks quickly, and we needed a stable activity.

After finishing the coloring, the Teamlab employee took our drawings and placed them through a special printer. Suddenly, our illustrations have been dropped all over the room. My friend’s snake slipped with our feet while my flower doubled on the walls. It was a complete surprise and a moment of pure joy.

The Flower Flower Park of Teamlab Planets consists of more than 13,000 living orchids, which float over you while walking in the room. As with “Infinite Crystal Universe”, it seems that the flowers surround you, thanks to the identical floors.

You can feel the orchids of movement and turn up or down and you walk through it, even slipping into your face. When you look at a flower closely, you are supposed to stare at the back.

It is a wonderful and amazing scene, it is possible because the orchards of fruit grow by absorbing water from the air. And yes, its smell is incredible.

When I first heard about Teamlab planets, I thought it would be similar to the Ice Cream Museum or the viral “VAN Gog” – quick pictures of Instagram.

But my friend and I had an explosion that we had hoped to come early to spend more time at every exhibition.

The museum is so enjoyable and fun that it seems intentionally designed to heal your inner child. I enjoyed more after the death of my phone and I can completely immerse myself in the experiment.

If the Teamlab Planets team is a tourist trap, I will leak happily again.
