The Little Prince Museum Hakone Saint-Exupery
A museum featuring the children’s story, “the Little Prince”, and its author, Antoine de Saint-Exupéry, as the theme. The garden blooms in all four seasons and is modeled after a European garden, with a little townscape like that of the author’s native France. The garden is photogenic from every angle. The exhibit focuses on Saint-Exupéry’s tumultuous life and you can learn just how “the Little Prince” came about.
