Mori Building Digital Art Museum: Epson teamLab Borderless is the official name of the museum, I know, it is a mouth-full. Located in Odaiba's Palette Town and is easily becoming a must-see for tourists and locals alike.

Places

  • 1. Crystal World

    A giant room filled with LEDs lights hanging down from the tall ceiling and surrounded by mirrors. Wait for the rain!

  • 2. Forest of Lamps

    Most popular art installation at Borderless, located on the second floor at the back on the museum.

  • 3. Light Vortex

    Perhaps the coolest room in the museum for its cool light show synchronized to music.

  • 4. Universe of Water Particles

    Room with the most descriptive name at Borderless, touch the Chinese characters on the walls for a little treat.

  • 5. Black Waves

    The most relaxing room at Borderless, lay down on giant beanbags while you take a little break by being mesmerized by the waves surrounding you.

  • 6. Infinite Transparency

    The most hidden room at Borderless, very hard to find, located in the far back behind a curtain where a ton of samurai and bunny holograms perform a Bon Odori dance.

  • 7. Floating Nest

    Most popular room with tourists in which you lay down in a giant nest while are surrounded by an interactive light journey. Lineups can be over 30 minutes, come early!

  • 8. Sketch Aquarium

    Located on the 3rd floor at the end of the Atheletic Forest, draw a sea creature and scan it to see it appear on the wall.

  • 9. Musical Wall

    Next to the Sketch Aquarium you can build your own tiny town for little people projections.

  • 10. En Tea House

    At the entrance of Athletic Forest you can enjoy a warm cup of tea in a very dark room while it blossoms all over you. Try the Yuzu tea!

The brainchild of teamLab, a visionary art collective made up of artists, engineers, CG animators and more, the wildly Instragrammable digital wonderland lives up to its 'borderless' name.

There isn't a map to guide you through this museum which makes for a fun adventure but the downside is you may miss a few hidden rooms, namely the Black Waves and Infinite Transparency since they are hidden behind curtains. Luckily, I tried to create a map with Google Maps listed above with the GPS coordinates for each room, hopefully that helps you find the hidden areas.
