Intermediatheque is one of Tokyo’s best curated yet least talked about museums. Whether you are interested in seeing a selection of ‘abnormal antlers’, a double-headed tortoise, or an impressive display of taxidermied birds, the museum quickly reveals itself to be one giant curiosity cabinet. Whilst the collection itself is reflective of Japan’s scientific cultural and natural history, its presentation is distinctly modern, and it is evident that the museum’s aesthetics have been carefully considered down to the last bell jar. You can get around the museum in an hour, so you’ll still have plenty of energy to tackle the Imperial Palace Gardens, which are close by!
