2023 will mark 10 years since washoku (traditional Japanese cuisine) was registered as a UNESCO Intangible Cultural Heritage.

Washoku is attracting more and more attention around the world.

This exhibition will introduce washoku from multiple perspectives, including science and history, along with a wide variety of specimens and materials.

We will explore the charm of Japanese cuisine, which may seem familiar but is surprisingly unknown, from the diverse ingredients nurtured by the Japanese Archipelago's nature to the techniques created by people's wisdom and ingenuity, historical changes, and even the future.
