At the Tokyo National Museum in Taito, Tokyo, the usually closed gardens will be open at night for the 'ZEN NIGHT TOKYO' event. Visitors can enjoy illuminated autumn leaves, a 'sea of clouds' visual display, and a unique 'neuro music' audio experience using VIE’s patented technology. The event offers a sound art experience called 'Walking Zen,' where attendees stroll through the garden surrounded by music, light, and tranquility. This is the fourth event in the series, following venues in Kyoto and Kamakura, and marks its first Tokyo appearance. The garden is open from 5:30 p.m. to 7:30 p.m. (extended to 9:00 p.m. on Fridays and Saturdays). Admission is via a combined ticket with the special exhibition '700 Years of Daitoku-ji: Unmatched Zen in Japan' held at the Heiseikan building. The museum is about a 10-minute walk from JR Ueno Station (Park Exit).
