What an experience! Teamlab Borderless is an exhibition to experience. It has something for all. The visuals and sound is something that you have to actually immerse yourself into. A picture can not show you how wonderful the show is.

So about getting there. It is a busy exhibition. So order your tickets online for the day you want to go otherwise you will have to wait up to a few hours to get in to the show. But you can buy your tickets at the door. It is dark in the building so be prepared to walk in some dimly lit rooms. Also some of the rooms have stairs to access them and uneven floors. There are lockers and umbrella holders to store your bags.

It said that it would take around two hours to go though. I took about three to three and a half as I did have to wait in some lines to see some of the rooms. I would go as early as possible and expect to be there for about half a day to get the full experience.

I can not wait until my next trip to Tokyo to see another teamLab show.

What a memorable, well planned space of brilliant art. This building is like no other you will ever go to. Fascinating for the whole family and we spent about 4hrs here. So varied in each room. A truly magical place.

Not worth the hype. Big que. Expensive. Time consuming. If you're a insta influencer or have kids, sure. Have fun take photos. Rest it's out of the way for any fun thing.
The shopping mall next door is worth checking out if you're around. Venetian styled indoor shopping

One of the best experience ever, we were there with our friends and we had time of our lives, great exhibition, very interesting light play, fun drowning time ... not only for children and we made great pictures. We would definitely recommended to everyone to come and visit Lab

This is a Tokyo 'must' see. Try not to look at other peoples photos, and give yourself (and kids especially) a truly wonderful surprise. The displays are immersive, engaging, colourful and slippery sliding. Tip - in terms of shoes don't wear heels, try to wear shoes that are easy to get on and off. And don't plan to rush through, you can easily spend a couple of hours in there, more if you have kids and they visit the specially designed kids area. Enjoy!

Best museum I ve ever been to. The intersection of art and technology is astounding. To see achievement at this level in both areas is truly a must-see. Would definitely recommend to anyone in the Tokyo prefecture.

Disclaimer : Some room may contains some irritating substances that may cause allergic reactions to your respiratory system (sadly, I did) like smoke or perfume, else it's great! despite the waiting time.

We're kind of skeptic about the reviews and when I saw the waiting line (300 meters according to Google maps) I thought it better be worth it. And it kinda play out fine in the end. There are a few points that you need to know before get in there.
1. Waiting time is long and I mean really long, so eat something before you get here.
2. If you're easy to get lost, I will pray to the God you worshipping. It's a mazes in there, a nasty one if you ask me. They have this concept about exploring and every thing will change by the time you get back to the same spot, a really dark atmosphere and lacks of sign didn't help either. Took me almost half an hour to find the exit. (I did ask 3 different staffs but I still can't find it)
3. It's great for kids, from toddlers to young adults. Since Japanese elders can climb 5 km. mountain trail without breaking a sweat (believe me, I saw some in Kyoto) they didn't think much about those out of shape like us. You might want to think twice if you can't climb a 3 floors staircase.
4. You may think you saw a magical phenomenon and unexplainable wizardry. No, it's science, programing and hard works. Your kid might like math and physic more if they are here.
5. If anything I did learn from today. If I need to buy a new projector I would definitely buy an Epson projector.

Get there early the line gets long quick and the busier it is the less you will see. Certain rooms have long lines to get in (probably the best ones but we had waited so long to get in we didnt bother). That being said, all the stuff you can see without waiting in line is pretty amazing so totally worth the cost of admission.

Mostly irrelevant, mildly interesting children s playground with elevator-ambient soundtrack. It wants to bring back three-dimensionality into our thinking but tries to do so via largely two-dimensional projections. Interactivity, aesthetics and technical aspects (resolution etc.) are pretty poor too. You can find a lot more interesting, cutting-edge digital art. And it s very expensive.

It was an phenomenal experience, not only.for the moment but the pictures came out as pretty impressive too. I wouldn't suggest to plan the entire day in the museum because it's pretty crowded and it would be annoying. 2 hours are great to see the entire museum. But be aware some attractions inside have huge waiting lines

A must see/feel in Tokyo. The displays make you part of the art as you can interact with most of them. The second floor is very children friendly. However, buy your tickets in advance as this is very popular.

It looks very nice on the internet when you see people alone with lights effect all around but in reality the experience is completely ruined by the amount of people. Inside it is so crowded that you can't enjoy the environment. The lights effect are nice but disappointing, no piece of art, no cultural art: not like in the one in "ateliers des lumieres" in Paris. For each small activity you have to stand 1 or 2 hours in a line...
They should reduce the amount of people in once instead of making money.

Place is AMAZING. Could've stayed there all 12 hours that it's open and enjoyed every bit of it. Theres a kid area up top and the entire thing is deceptively large. You can wander rooms and have them always change. Definitely a must see place.

Absolutely fantastic but to be fair tbe projectors are not high definition enough to give that extra little edge to the exhibition. The art is breathtaking though although some of tbe projectors were not up to the job or were badly focused.

It would be a five star experience otherwise. Nonetheless recommended and remember to bring your camera. Photography is allowed.

I mean, a lot of people have already said this, but this place is pretty rad. It's a must-see art exhibit if you appreciate abstract or experimental digital art. You'll absolutely want to reserve your tickets in advance, as it's really the only way to get a spot in the tea room. You'll also want to budget 3-5 hours to really explore the entire exhibit, because it's easy to get lost (in a good way) wandering the hallways and various rooms. Overall it's easy to recommend checking this place out.

Breathtaking, specifically the exhibit with the hanging LEDs. Definitely worth the money to go and enjoy, get there early as crowds will come. Some of the displays do appear darker in person, but they come out looking stellar on camera. More

Amazing family experience. We went on a weekday during winter and it was still very busy. We loved it anyway. Make sure you take photos quickly within the lantern room because you don't get long in there!

Absolutely worth the price. There's a great section at the end where you can create your own sea creature that becomes a part of the art. Loved this place!

It's a beautiful and amazing experience. It's extremely unique and very different to any other kind of museum/art exhibition. It uses lights and dark spaces and creates a very surreal experience that feels magical. It really did feel borderless. It's a must do when you come to Tokyo!

Great place, get there before 11am on a weekday and before 10 am on a weekend. Good luck arriving in the afternoon. You can easily spend the entire day here, but give yourself a minimum of 3 or 4 hours.

This place blew my mind. I didn t know what to expect since it was recommended by my SO, but this museum clearly doesn t disappoint. Be sure to search for all hidden gems and set aside 3 - 4 hours for an insane experience.

Long que just to get in even with a ticket. The display bit monotonous, and there's a que for 60 min. inside. Quite full so taking picture may be a bit difficult if you come late. Not a specific content that you cannot find on other location, not really worth the ticket price

Absolutely loved it! The rooms are beautiful and fun, absolutely blew me away!
Yes, you do have to wait in line for some of the rooms, where only a limited number of people can be inside at a time (such as the lanterns or tea ceremony) but the staff do a good job of moving people through at a reasonable pace.
Can 110% recommend paying the little bit extra for the tea ceremony, even if you don t like or drink tea, it was definitely my favourite experience there and still blows me away months later. A great tip is to stop and actually read the signs and plaques that explain some of the displays, you definitely get a deeper understanding that way, for example in the butterfly room.

I can t recommend this place highly enough! Words just don t do it justice!

This place is amazing! The interactive art work is stunning and it is so beautiful! The park is rather large inside, and the installation fits in all ages , from babies to elderly. I particularly enjoy the interactive tea experience, watching the virtual flower grows and disappear. Highly recommended!

It feels as though this place was built in order to create good Instagram pictures more than actually trying to create intriguing art. This is the art museum equivalent to click bait.
Not my cup of tea, but this is definitely a cool place to take kids!

Amazing!

Amazing!

My partner and I could not fault the experience and wish we went back!

Our favourite part was colouring in the sea life and scanning them into the fish tank display!

A trip! You should get tickets online in advance. And you will have to line up to get in. The installations are amazing. It s probably too crowded at all times but worth the visit. The teahouse is another highlight.

Unique experience, but very crowded. The exhibit is like a maze, so I m not sure if we got to see all the rooms. No indicators or maps available, so it s a free for all once you enter the exhibit.

Fantastic experience. Definitely worth doing. You will need a good amount of time to make sure you see everything as theres no map. But it is lovely just wandering. Make sure you see upstairs.
I didn't bother queuing the 45 mins for the lanterns and I dont feel I missed out

Loved this exhibition!! Make sure you arrive early (or from what I've heard, later). We arrived at 945am for 10am opening and were let in 15 min early. No queues for any exhibits. There are hidden rooms and exhibits so make sure to have a strategy!

Bit disappointing. Very clever for what it is. But don't thinks worth the money and time to visit. Was surprised how uninteractive it is.

They seem to limit attendance numbers which stops it being over busy. They have free lockers and toilets / break areas

The monorail journey from Tokyo to this museum was more interactive and better suited for an adult. MORI is for children and adult-children who like to Instagram a load of low res butterflies to their followers. If you have kids, bring them as they will love it. If you're an adult...don't bother. Also, nothing in this museum is art...
