A special exhibition taking place at the Setagaya Art Museum looks at artists who worked in neighborhoods served by the Den-en-toshi Line and Setagaya Line, including the likes of Sangenjaya and Sakura-shinmachi.

Some of the works on display at the event include pieces from Japanese-style painter Hirafuku Hyakusui, photographer Kineo Kuwabara, and Western-style painters Junkichi Mukai and Kotaro Midorikawa. The exhibition allows visitors to follow in the footsteps of the artist's creations, and appreciate various stories intertwined with the railway lines.

Adult admission to the event is priced at 200 yen.

Getting there

The Setagaya Art Museum is located around 15 minutes on foot from Yoga Station on the Tōkyū Den-en-toshi Line.

Sangenjaya in the photo - its one of my favorite train station names! Just love the way it rolls of the tongue. I used to live on the Denentoshi line, I would love to see this exhibition.

Not the longest, but a mouthful, is Nagareyama Ootakanomori Station on the Tobu Urban Park Line. Love train station names here!
