In order to make the world more energetic and smile more, since 2003, the theme of PIECE OF PEACE has been used to make world heritage touring exhibitions around the world using LEGO reactors, which received widespread praise and response.
There were 13 first exhibitions in Japan, and 14 second solo exhibitions in 2008. In 2012, in addition to Japan, it even toured overseas, with more than 30 million visitors. This Lego exhibition, with the theme of “Looking at World Heritage”, mainly hopes that people will not forget the history of humankind and the culture passed down from all over the world, and the nature that coexists with human beings needs more protection from you and me. Strive for peace a little less, use your PIECE to maintain the world’s PEACE.
This year, the 2020 exhibition will be held at PARCO in Shibuya, Tokyo and PARCO in Ikebukuro at the same time. Interested friends are welcome to come and experience the world heritage piled up by LEGO and rediscover PIECE OF PEACE in your heart!
PARCO MUSEUM TOKYO 15-1 4F Utagawa-cho, Kariya-ku, Tokyo
15 minutes walk from Shibuya Station
Ikebukuro Parco’s exhibition focuses on the works of major world heritages from previous generations, while Shibuya Parco’s exhibition focuses on newly registered world heritage works. It is rich in content and has its own characteristics. Friends who like Lego should not miss it Get up at the venue and feel the fineness and shock of all the works. Other friends also invited to the venue to experience the mysteries of history together like a world heritage tour, which is extremely educational for children.
In addition to displaying LEGO works, there will also be video playback at the venue, so that everyone can watch videos of major world heritage sites, understand the actual architecture, and look back at LEGO works. I believe they will definitely have some style and touch. There is also an aerial photo area where the world heritage of the earth is taken from space, so that everyone can deeply feel the beauty of the earth and arouse everyone’s belief in protecting the earth. There are also a series of conservation activities introduced by Japan’s UNESCO for World Heritage and videos of Lego works. Of course, there are also sales of Lego products, and some of the sales will be used as public welfare funds. Such an interesting exhibition that is both learning and charity is waiting for you!

For people living in Edo, one of their New Year’s pleasures was to watch Kabuki, and it was a chic way to spend the New Year. Theatrical teahouses supported this way of enjoying Kabuki. In addition to arranging tickets to the theater, the teahouses delighted patrons by providing a complete range of services, including plot notes, tea, sweets, makunouchi box lunches, and snacks and drinks (*1). Hoshinoya Tokyo offers a stay to celebrate the New Year with hospitality similar to the theatrical teahouses of the time.
