Wander, Explore, Discover
True to its nickname — "the museum without a map" — teamLab Borderless has no boundaries between artworks, no set viewing order, and no explanations.
There are no room names, no marked beginning or end. Visitors get lost, find their way, and discover their own unique artworks along the journey.
EN Tea House
Hidden somewhere inside the exhibition, EN TEA HOUSE is a truly special space. There's no additional admission fee, but you need to purchase a drink to enter.
When your tea is poured, flowers bloom inside the teacup. As you drink, the flowers continue to bloom endlessly, transforming into an infinite world right before your eyes.
- Opens: 10:00 AM (1 hour after the museum opens)
※ Last order: 30 minutes before closing
How teamLab Borderless Differs from teamLab Planets
teamLab Borderless and teamLab Planets Tokyo are both immersive digital art experiences by teamLab, but they differ significantly in concept and style.
teamLab Borderless removes all boundaries between artworks — the entire space is designed like a maze where visitors freely explore and become part of the art. In contrast, teamLab Planets focuses on sensory immersion: visitors take off their shoes and walk through water, physically interacting with the artworks along a set route.
At Borderless, you wander freely through a maze-like space with no fixed path. At Planets, you follow a guided sequence of rooms.
teamLab Planets Tokyo is located at Shintoyosu Station (Yurikamome Line).
Epilogue
teamLab Borderless carries a message about applying the persistence, change, and harmony experienced within the artworks to our own lives — making the world a more beautiful place. The visit takes longer than you might expect, so plan your schedule with plenty of time to spare.

If you're feeling hungry before (or after) your visit, don't go far. Right in the same building's B1 market, there's a place serving the legendary "Adult's Kids Lunch" — often called the best meat restaurant in Tokyo.
