Famous Gardens Tokyo Area

Being the capital of Japan since the Edo period (1603-1868), Tokyo’s gardens are fundamentally different from the ones you can find in Kyoto.

Here, the contrast-coexistence between Old and New is striking. Entering a Tokyo garden gives you the feeling of time travel. At the garden gate you leave the hectic world behind you and take sanctuary in a perfect mini landscape.

A wonderful peaceful spot is for example the small Koishikawa-Koraku-En were you can get lost on the strolling paths. Or the ample Shinjuku-Gyoen, which gives you space to breath freely while taking a walk on the grounds of a former daimyo residence.
