Otsuka Museum of Art

大塚国際美術館

The Otsuka Museum of Art in Naruto has the largest exhibition space in Japan. Its collection is made of more than 1,000 ceramic-panel copies of famous artworks. One highlight is a full-size copy of Michelangelo's Sistine Chapel ceiling. It is a good indoor stop when visiting the Naruto whirlpools.

Good to know

  • The museum has the largest exhibition space in Japan, so plan plenty of time.

Tips for Muslim visitors

  • The viewing route inside the museum is about 4 km long, so allow plenty of time and plan your prayer times around the visit.
  • Museums are quiet, indoor places that are good for a break, but few have a prayer room. Staff may let you use a quiet corner if you ask politely.
  • Photography rules change by exhibition. Check the signs before taking pictures.
  • Plan your visit around prayer times. Below are today's prayer times for Tokushima and the verified places to pray nearby.
