Ritsurin Garden – "A Picturesque Hanami Escape in Shikoku"

#cherryblossom25 Ritsurin Garden in Takamatsu is one of Japan’s most breathtaking landscape gardens, offering a harmonious blend of cherry blossoms, ponds, and carefully manicured trees. With the Mt. Shiun backdrop, the reflections of sakura in the still water create a postcard-perfect scene. The park’s traditional wooden bridges and teahouses enhance its charm, making it an ideal location for a peaceful hanami. Visitors can take a wasen (Japanese boat) ride to view the cherry blossoms from the water, adding a unique touch to the experience. For those exploring Shikoku, Ritsurin Garden is a spectacular hanami destination rich in history and beauty.
