SUWA GARASUNOSATO

Complex Facility / Commercial Facility
Standing on the bank of Lake Suwa, this art museum can be identified by its triangular roof. Displaying numerous delicate and highly emotional pieces by noted glass artists from countries around the world, the museum's standing exhibition changes seasonally. In one of the largest glass blowing workshops in the country, visitors can try activities such as glassblowing, candle making, and making glass beads. In the adjoining glass shop, there are a variety of accessories, tableware, and other glass items available for purchase which are also fun just to look at. The facility's bakery and restaurant, offering a sweeping view of Lake Suwa, is also recommended.

  • 体験もできるし、お土産は盛沢山

    単なるガラス製品のお土産屋さんかと思って入ったら、体験教室もあり、子供たちも参加できる。ガラス製品に限らず、一般的なお土産もあり、しばらく時間が使える。買い物の後はガラス張りのレストランで諏訪湖を見ながら飲むお茶もまたおいしい。旅に来たなって感じ。
  • 見るだけでもGood

    ガラス工芸の美術館です。無料エリアもあり、十分に楽しめます。お土産エリアはとても広くてウィンドウショッピングするだけでも楽しいです。
  • 駐車場が繋がっている。美術館は一見の価値あり

    諏訪湖畔にあるミュージアム。ガラスの展示品も見事ですが、ほとんどが売店。いろいろと好みのものが買えます。こればかりは好みなので、一度行って自身で確認してください。ただし、ナビで行くと駐車場が分かりづらいです。松本方向からだと、交差点から、直進、左折して入れるのはもちろん、隣の販売所の駐車場ともつながっていました。行き過ぎたと思い、隣に入り一旦諏訪湖側に出て左折で入ったら、左側で駐車場が繋がってい...
