北九州市立美術館
Kitakyushu City Museum of Art
Designed by architect Arata Isozaki.

It is said that it was designed with the image of a cathedral. Two large volumes create the appearance as a chianti lever. It is a symmetric structure. Because of its appearance, it has the nickname of "binoculars on the hill" . The entrance hall is a three-story atrium. A collection of contemporary art, mainly from the Impressionists. In addition, about 1,300 ukiyo-e collections by Sen-ichi Tamura, a Japanese scholar of Kyushu University, were donated in bulk after his death.
