Tokyo Metropolitan Teien Art Museum

The Tokyo Metropolitan Teien Art Museum (東京都庭園美術館 Tōkyōto Teien Bijutsukan?) is an art museum in Tokyo, Japan. It is located in Minato ward, and just east of Meguro Station. The museum is housed in an Art Deco building that was previously the residence of Prince Asaka Yasuhiko (1933–47), the official residence of Prime Minister (1947–50), and the State Guest House (1950–74).

Teien means Japanese garden and the museum is named so because the building is surrounded by a garden and sculptures.
