Naoshima Art Island - beyond spectacular

I can’t rave enough about how fabulous and serene Naoshima - the main “art island” off the south east coast of Japan - is. I just spent a little over 24 hours there and saw so much incredible art and design - by some of Japan’s most famous contemporary art and design legends (including Yayoi Kusama and Takao Ando) as well as some huge international big hitters (including FOUR pieces by James Turrell). I went in the off season (early February) which was awesome for less crowds but you still need to reserve a few of the galleries in advance, they will sell out for the day even in winter!!! I recommend staying at least one night but if I had my time over I would have stayed 2 nights so it didn’t feel so rushed. I will 100% be returning to Naoshima again just to be there for a few days and soak it all in. This is food for your soul.#art #naoshima #Japan
