We arrived in the afternoon around 130 on the ferry from Inujima so we didn’t have a lot of time. We rented electric bicycles for ¥1000/4 hours and quickly biked to the Teshima Art Museum. The bike ride was mostly uphill and took about 20 min. It was a last minute decision to visit Teshima and we had reserved the tickets only the night before for 230. Usually it would be recommended to reserve them further ahead but with Covid, it was a lot easier. You have to take your shoes off before entering the museum. It’s very beautiful, simple and mesmerizing. You can stay as long as you like watching the puddles of water in motion. There are small tables outside that you can sit by to look at the tube terraces. We were there after the harvest so it was not as breathtaking as it would have been with the fields flooded. Would definitely like to visit in September.

I could not visit Teshima Art Musuem because I could not take boat to Teshima Island from Naoshima Island. The boat crew protect me taking a boat. They said the seat is already full. Only 3 small boats a day and no seat reservation system. Therefore, I can not know if I can take a boat or not until last time. I claimed this problem to boat Company and Tour Office if they have any plan to fix this problem. But they did not care at all. They consider it as just visitor's personal luck.

You have to go there. Calling it a museum is irony- it is an installation, rather, the most minimalistic and fascinating space you will ever experience.

Teshima Museum is one structure made of concrete with three openings-an entrance and two holes in the ceiling. Sitting in the structure you watch the world through the ceilings, and the drops coalesce on the floor, you close your eyes and listen to the birds and wind. Some people even fall asleep. The art is the experience of nature. A very unique experience.
