teamLab Planets is a body-immersive museum in Toyosu, Tokyo, where visitors remove their shoes and wade through knee-deep water, walk on soft surfaces, and become part of the artwork. The museum features a series of vast installation spaces including the infinite crystal universe, a room of giant floating spheres, and gardens of real moss and flowers merged with digital projections. The experience engages all senses and encourages visitors to dissolve the boundary between self and art.

## FAQ

### What should I wear to teamLab Planets?

Wear shorts or clothes you can roll up above your knees, because you'll wade through water up to knee-deep. Avoid long dresses and skirts unless you're comfortable hiking them up. The museum provides shorts to change into if needed. You go barefoot throughout (lockers provided for shoes and bags). Mirrors and dark spaces are involved, so consider what you're comfortable with.

### How long does teamLab Planets take?

Most visitors spend 1.5-2 hours. The main experience path takes about 1 hour, but you can linger in spaces you enjoy. Add time for photos and the optional garden areas. Visit early morning or late evening for smaller crowds and better photo opportunities.

### Do I need to book teamLab Planets in advance?

Highly recommended. Tickets are timed-entry and popular slots (weekends, evenings) sell out. Book online at planets.teamlab.art. Walk-ups may be possible on quiet weekdays but risk being turned away. Booking also lets you skip the ticket queue and go straight to entry.

### How does teamLab Planets compare to Borderless?

Planets (Toyosu) is the immersive 'wade-into-the-art' experience: knee-deep water in mirrored rooms, projection-mapping that responds to body movement, and the famous Floating Flower Garden of orchids. Borderless (Azabudai) is a walking gallery where artworks move between rooms, more cerebral and less physical. Planets is more dramatic and Instagram-friendly; Borderless is more contemplative. Tickets: Planets ¥3,800–4,400 (cheaper); Borderless ¥3,800+. Both deserve visits if time permits, as they are different experiences.
