Chiran Samurai Garden, located in Minamikyushu City, Kagoshima Prefecture, is a historic district where the residences and beautiful gardens of Satsuma feudal lords from the Edo period remain.

#AbsolutelyFreeTrip Walking along the stone-walled paths, I felt as if I'd been transported to the world of a period drama. ✨ I visited in the quiet morning, and the space, filled only with the sounds of birds and the wind, was a truly soothing experience. Each garden has its own unique charm, reflecting the aesthetic sense of Satsuma, with its dry landscape gardens and pond-style gardens. I was touched to see the locals carefully tending the gardens, and to see how history and lifestyle still thrive. Enjoy a quiet stroll alone, or stroll the charming paths with your partner. Chiran Samurai Residence Gardens is the perfect place for a peaceful, Japanese journey. 🍃 [Access] Approximately an hour and a half by car from Kagoshima-Chuo Station. 🚗 Or, take the bus for approximately 40 minutes from Kiire Station on the JR Ibusuki Makurazaki Line. Parking is available, making it a great place for a drive. Chiran Samurai Residence Garden #Edo Period Scenery #Satsuma Domain #Historical Walk #Domestic Travel #Couple Travel #Solo Travel
