The Toyota Auto Museum

Follow up to our museum gigs was the Toyota Automobile Museum. The main building of the museum showcase about 120 automobiles, mainly involving the history of practical cars from the end of the 19th century when the first gasoline powered car was born to the present. European and American cars are on the 2nd floor, domestic cars are on the 3rd floor. The annex building, which was opened in April of 1999 to commemorate the 10th anniversary of the Toyota Automobile Museum, exhibits the history of motorization of Japan elaborating on the influence of the automobile on our lives and culture.

I am not a car enthusiast but seeing those cars especially the European cars were really admirable. I just wished I own one of them. So, here are the pics we've taken during our visit.
