Last update :

The brick building surrounded by a bright green garden is filled with teddy bears from all over the world, including those created by popular artists. Some of the teddy bears on display are of great historical value, such as one made by Steiff in Germany around 1910 and one made by Chad Valley in England about 1940.

You can also find unique teddy bears, such as the "Rushmore Bears," based on the giant heads of the four U.S. presidents on Mount Rushmore in the U.S., and one inspired by the world-famous "The Tale of the Young Grass" by Olcott. You might find one of your favorites among the many teddy bears.

After visiting the adorable teddy bears, don't you want to take a break at the English-style cafe "Teddy's Garden"? You can enjoy sweets and drinks in the shape of teddy bears. There is also a terrace seating area, so if it's a sunny day, you can spend some quality time looking out at the garden.

Finally, don't forget to stop by the museum store. You can pick up a limited edition teddy bear, miscellaneous goods, and other original items to commemorate your visit.
