Since I don't have a car and am broke student, I had to walk to the museum, which took about 30 minutes, but it was totally worth it! I think adults pay around 800 Yen entry and I, a university student, paid around 500 Yen, but I'm not 100% if I remember that correctly. Either way! I love Ukiyo-e, so this place is a must visit, the exhibition itself was small, but made with care and very detailed. The coolest thing though, was that you could print your own copy of Ukiyo-e painting, which was a lot of fun and cheap too! Only 300 Yen for two pictures.

This little museum is worth a side trip. Main exhibit of works including from Hirishige's 53 Stations Of The Tokaido as well as smaller exhibits from modern artist. (Was exhibit and video presentation from US based Japanese artist AIKO.)
This museum is full of beautiful Hiroshige prints. I saw some from the 36 View of Mount Fuji series. If you are unfamiliar with Hiroshige's work, he made the iconic picture of the Great Wave of Kanagawa. The admission was 510 yen. There are storage lockers available for a 100yen deposit. There is also a fun make your own block print station where you can try making your own block prints for 300yen for three sheets of paper and an envelope to carry them in.
