Strollers, nursing room, and diaper tables ease care tasks, yet quiet halls, possible stroller parking, and long standing time can tire parents, so limit visit to garden or café.
Why 2-3 hours visit duration is ideal for with baby: Allows time for a garden walk, café break, and using baby facilities without rush.
Garden Stroll:
Walk the Meiji-era garden in a free museum stroller.

Use Baby Facilities:

Tip: Find the nursing room on 1F of Heisei Chishinkan Wing near the restrooms.
Café Break at Maeda Coffee:
Enjoy coffee, tea, and light snacks while your baby naps.
Tip: Enter the café without a museum ticket via the shop entrance.
Browse Benrido Shop:

Beautiful museum area-an older main building and a modern branch. the main building was closed at the time of my visit. the museum featured archaelogical artifacts, antique art and various scrolls. there were not many displays but they were worth seeing. the museum grounds featured a nice fountain and a few sculptures-also with plenty of trees. the food at the restaurant was good as well!
