[Tokyo/Komagome🇯🇵] A world of mysterious beauty in every season ✨ Rikugien Garden

The allure of Rikugien Garden, located in Tokyo's Bunkyo Ward, lies in the breathtakingly elegant beauty of its strolling hill and pond garden, built during the Edo period, and the delicate scenery woven by Japan's four seasons. The tranquility, so tranquil it makes you forget you're in the heart of the city, and the space, which embodies the aesthetic sense of the time, offer visitors a moment of tranquility and an experience of the profound beauty of Japan. Rikugien Garden's greatest appeal lies in its strolling garden. As you stroll through the vast garden, different views emerge one after another as you change your angle, giving you the feeling of walking through a picture scroll. The skillfully placed hills, stepping stones, and bridges around the pond give viewers a sense of depth and spaciousness. Particularly eye-catching is the large pond at the garden's center, the "Great Spring." Walking along the pond's edge, the beautiful reflections of the green trees and the colors of the sky on its surface will help you forget the hustle and bustle of the city. Every small island in the pond and every stone placed along the water's edge is imbued with meaning, allowing visitors to sense the philosophy and aesthetic sensibility of the time the garden was constructed. 🩵 The garden is also adorned with the beautiful scenery of Japan's four seasons. In spring, weeping cherry blossoms grace the pond's shores, and in autumn, maple and wax trees bathe in fiery reds and yellows, transforming the entire garden into a brocade picture scroll. The special nighttime viewing period, when the garden is illuminated, creates a fantastical atmosphere distinct from the daytime, captivating visitors with its beauty. The lush greenery of summer and the snow-covered winter each offer unique charms, and no matter how many times you visit, you'll always find something new to discover. 👀 The garden also features a teahouse that retains its original charm. Enjoy a cup of matcha green tea and Japanese sweets while admiring the beautiful scenery. Listening to the birdsong and the sound of the wind as time passes quietly will refresh your mind and body. 📍Address: 6-16-3 Honkomagome, Bunkyo-ku, Tokyo 113-0021 🕰️Hours: 9:00 AM - 5:00 PM #AbsolutelyFreeTravel
