Situated in the city of Nagoya, Tokugawa Art Museum is a private museum, which contains a collection of the personal affairs of the Tokugawa family, including articles of Ieyasu Tokugawa, the first shogun of the Edo period who reigned Japan from the end of the 15th century to the end of the 16th century. There are many precious articles that tell us how this famous family lived. Among all their belongings, the picture scroll of the Tale of Genji is in fact a national treasure! On top of that, the main building and the south collection room are built in 1932. You can still see the beautiful architecture that was popular at the time. In fact, it is registered as a National Tangible Cultural Building in 1997.
