Meguro Parasitological Museum

目黒寄生虫館

4.4Est. 30Meguro, Kanto
Local Pick

The Meguro Parasitological Museum is the only museum in the world given over entirely to parasites: two small floors, free entry, and an 8.8-meter tapeworm pulled from one patient. It closes Mondays and Tuesdays, so plan it midweek. Thirty minutes covers it, gift-shop tapeworm keychain included.

Local tips

The gift shop tapeworm T-shirt is a cult item among Tokyo locals. It sells out frequently, so grab one if they have your size.
