TODA KOSHIRO Picture Book Museum
A picture book museum themed on "Living in Harmony with Nature"
Nestled in a quiet villa district of Atami City, the TODA KOSHIRO Picture Book Museum, themed on "Living in Harmony with Nature," was entirely designed by picture book author Toda Koshiro to express the world of picture books through the building, garden, and every detail.
The museum displays many original picture book illustrations by Toda, educational and creative picture books, and picture book adaptations of classics such as Osamu Dazai’s Run, Melos. Visitors can read loaner picture books on the lawn, listen to birdsong, and enjoy seasonal scenery while spending a relaxed time.
The attached café also offers stunning views of the sea and surrounding mountains.
This is a place where Atami’s nature and Toda Koshiro’s spirit come together.
