The Enoura Observatory is an art project in and of itself. The landscaped grounds and imposing architecture of stone, glass, and steel invite visitors to consider a singular question: What is being observed? Whether the answer is the installation art perched on the hillsides, the beautiful sea views beyond, or simply the passage of time, there is plenty to take in at this world-class outdoor art site.

Programme Details

:

Arrive at the Enoura Observatory at a designated entry time and a meet an English-speaking guide. Together, tour the complex and learn what makes this modern art facility so special.

Created in 2017 by renowned artist Hiroshi Sugimoto, the Observatory is a collection of buildings and structures made to be at peace with the beautiful natural surroundings. See minimalist observation platforms that look out over the sea, embellished by a nearby collection of stone statues from across Japan. Elsewhere in the complex, art installations and contemporary steel statues stand beside swaying bamboo groves.

Without spoiling too much, there is plenty to admire in this thought-provoking site. 

As the tour comes to an end, bid farewell to the guide and continue exploring the Observatory independently or move on to the next destination.
