eduardo's question:
Do you know any museum in Ikebukuro -Tokyo that's worth a visit?(give a different answer) .
East Ikebukuro houses the Sunshine City, a complex of shops, offices, hotels and museums. Among all its buildings there is the Ancient Orient Museum on the 7th floor of Bunka Kaikan. It displays archaelogical finds from the Middle East, especially Syria, like bits of old pottery, statues, jewellery, icons and other pieces of art. The most famous is the great Gandhara Buddhist art from Pakistan and the smiling goddess created around 2000 BC in Syria. I hope you'll find it interesting too.
