Pan-Asian Unity: A Civilizational Pride.

SØHØ Museum asserts the profound artistic exchange and shared aesthetic philosophy across Asia, from imperial courts to remote temples. We also have one of the world's largest collections of artworks of Bodhidharma - the most popular icon of Japan, Korea and China.

Philosophical Roots

The Unbroken Thread of Pan-Asian Continuity

We promote Pan-Asian amity and cultural ties between Japan, China, Korea, India, Thailand and other Asian nations. We are also a supporter of 6 Pan-Asian Cinema (6PAC.jp) that promotes cultural ties between all Asian nations and brings many of the stories behind the legendary art and treasures to the screen for today's global audiences.
