Tokyo Metro Museum


Experience the eerie feeling of climbing aboard a replica metro train in an empty station in this innovative and interactive site devoted to Tokyo’s nine lines.

The Tokyo Metro Museum provides a fascinating insight into the history, intricacies and future of the city’s acclaimed subway system. Alongside the hundreds of items that shed light on the nine underground train lines, the site has a replica of a typical metro station and its vintage boxcar train. Embrace the ingenuity and intrigue among the technological exhibits in this futuristic museum.

The museum has about 600 items on display that help to present the story of the city’s metro system. Enter the resource room and watch the various movies that depict the construction and development of these underground lines. These include documentaries and short animated films.

Among the highlights is the restored vintage train that awaits you in the museum’s empty Ueno Station. Insert your museum tickets into the automatic ticket gates for this exceptional experience.

Inspect the advertisements from the 20th century that glaze the walls of the replica station and take you back to a bygone era. Climb aboard the restored boxcar that was once part of Asia’s first subway, the Ginza Line. It includes a wooden interior and model figures that represent the commuters of the early 1900s.

Sit in the driver’s seat of the train simulator and imagine zooming through Tokyo’s tunnels. Study the detailed diorama that recreates the busy city center.

Purchase snacks from the vending machines or bring your own food and drink to enjoy in one of the museum’s open spaces. Souvenirs are available in the gift shop.

The site is open from morning until late afternoon, Tuesday through Sunday. Purchase tickets at the reception area and ask for discounts for kids and groups.

Find the Tokyo Metro Museum in the heart of the Edogawa Ward. Ride the Tozai Line to the nearby Kasai Station. Make sure to see neighboring sights such as the Shunkaen Bonsai Museum, Ojima Komatsugawa Park and Kasai Rinkai Park.
