    Visit to get a comprehensive understanding of the origins of Tokyo and its development over the past centuries. Permanent exhibit includes real-size, reconstructed architecture from the city's past.

    This is probably a good place to start.. Museum wise. It gives a great overview of Tokyo history and contrasts the prewar and now modern; Edo-Tokyo

    Well done history of the Edo era and modern Tokyo. Definitely visit here early in your trip. If foreign language tours are available take one, otherwise go with headphone. Plan +2.5 hours.

    It was amazing that there are volunteer guides in the museum explaining Japanese history during our visit. It gave me a really good background info. Expect to spend 2.5-3 hours in the museum

    Must visit place!There are 2 floors of constant exhibition + temporary exhibition on the first floor.I'd recommend to take audio guide. It's free, but you need to leave 1000 yen deposit.

    A lot of information is not translated- only title, without even year or map key or any information.like museum was made only for Japanese. It's better on 5th floor. Special exhibition is must see

    Best place to see how Tokyo has been evolved since Edo period (400 years ago). The replica and life-size exhibition is a must-see. English speaker guide available.

    Worth for 600 yen (you can get 120 yen discount founded in Tokyo Guide Book) you'd have a lot of spare time to enjoy all of museum without rush.

    Really big museum, but I recommend you to ask for a guide so he can explain better to you everything

    A massive museum featuring tons of dioramas and displays showing the history of Tokyo (when it was known as Edo). The Nihonbashi Bridge replica is one of the highlights.

    Best way is take Oedo subway line to Ryogoku station. From Villa Fontain Ueno turn to the right and walk 2-3 minutes along main road to Shin-Okachimachi station of Oedo line, 2d stop is Ryogoku

    Cool building with a built up Edo-style Tokyo street and bridge (!) inside.

    Even though the main exposition only takes 2 floors, don't be fooled. You will need at least 3 hours to go through it.

    Don't bother getting the electronic audio guide - it just reads out what is written by the exhibits, and doesn't work well either

    常設展は2015年3月にリニューアルしましたので、2014年以前に行かれた方も新鮮に見れます。個人的に気に入ったのは江戸城本丸御殿のジオラマ。大名たちの詰め部屋を立体的に把握出来ます。江戸城内での大名たちの行動に興味がある方、上田秀人氏の小説やや『黒書院の六兵衛』に興味がある方にはたまりませんね。

    江戸東京400年の歴史と文化を展示する博物館。江戸庶民の自然・モノとの共生という生活スタイルを展示する江戸ゾーンと、大正12年の大震災と昭和20年の大空襲の展示を通して惨禍の中から復興への力を展示する東京ゾーンの2つに大きく分けられます。 実物大に復元した江戸時代の日本橋を渡って江戸東京400年の歴史の世界へいざ出発!

    真田丸展を目当てに来たが、観覧時間は常設展と合わせて都合4時間ほどに。この手の歴史博物館にしては常設展の内容がすこぶる充実している(特にジオラマの充実ぶりは凄い)ので、初めて来るなら特別展と合わせて見ておきたい。ただ、それなりに時間は潰す覚悟はいるけども。

    1F エントランスと切符売場はいつも混んでいるので、比較的空いている 3F 切符売場の利用をお薦め。時間に余裕があれば、ここから徒歩 10 分程度で行ける東京都復興記念館 (関東大震災と東京大空襲をテーマにした博物館) も合わせて見学しておきたい。

    Спросите англоязычного гида на ресепшене в начале моста. Бесплатно и очень интересно, только долго, поэтому расчитайте время)))
