teamLab is an art collective that began activities in 2001.
Experts from diverse fields such as artists, programmers, engineers, CG animators, mathematicians, and architects gather.
Using digital technology, their work is not only visually beautiful, but also features interactive art that the audience can directly touch and experience.

How to access
teamLab Borderless moved to Azabudai Hills in Tokyo and opened on 2024/2/9.
The nearest station is a 4-minute walk from Kamiyacho Station Exit 5 on the Tokyo Metro Hibiya Line or Exit 52 of Roppongi-itchome Station on the Tokyo Metro Namboku Line
Highlights
teamLab Borderless features countless works of art spread out in a large space.
As the name “borderless” suggests, the works are connected to each other, and the entire space can be experienced as one large work of art.
The works I particularly recommend are as follows.
Borderless World
“Borderless World” has no boundaries, and each work creates a new world while being influenced by other works.
It's a new kind of art work.
Bubble Universe
This is a world premiere work.
Since it is a space where the number of people who can enter is limited, you can take pictures without worry.
EN TEA HOUSE
If you're taking a break, why don't you have a cup of tea in the tea room?
This isn't just a teahouse either. In tea, seasonal flowers are born and bloomed due to projection.
teamLab Borderless Time Required
Be sure to set aside at least 3 hours to stay.
You need to decide on an admission time when purchasing tickets, but the time you can stay inside the building is unlimited.
How to buy tickets
We recommend purchasing tickets online in advance for each teamLab exhibit.
It is especially expected to be crowded on weekends and holidays, so early reservations are recommended.
Tickets can be purchased from the official website, and admission time must be specified.
Key points when visiting

Clothes that are easy to move around in
There are many interactive exhibits, so it's a good idea to wear clothes that are easy to move around in.
If you want to take pictures, we recommend wearing white or plain clothes. If it's white, it stands out even in the dark.
Preparing the camera
Don't forget to charge your camera to capture beautiful artwork.
Early arrival
Waiting times may occur for popular exhibitions.
We recommend that you have plenty of time to spare.

Finding spots in Japan where you can experience beauty such as massages, nails, and beauty treatments to heal the tiredness of your trip is highly recommended as part of sightseeing.
Here are a few salons that I recommend to those who are particular about technology and quality.
Ginza/ “Mani Nail Care Ginza Store”
Open at 9 a.m.! A 5-minute walk from Ginza Station, this is a popular nail care salon where you can get rid of nail problems.
Hand and foot nails can be performed simultaneously. For those who are concerned about the burden of gel nails, we have prepared a number of “non-scraping” gel polishes, shellac, nail care, foot care, etc.

Ginza/ “head CONCIERGE Ginza Store”
A head spa specialty store where a group of nationally qualified specialists lead to “ultimate sleep.”
It is a technique of pressing pressure points on the head called the deep muscle approach, which leads to ultimate sleep.
