Gorgeous gardens!! Plum blossom grove when visiting in early March! So lovely. There was an even a place to store our large suitcase for free when we entered.

What a treat to walk around this gorgeous park right in the middle of a ginormous city!! There is a small entrance fee, and once you go in, it's like you are transported to the most peaceful and quiet place in nature! It was a great way to get grounded after so many days of rushing around sightseeing and shopping throughout Tokyo. The park is well-kept with lush greenery, trees, cherry trees about to burst with flowers, and a gorgeous field of yellow and purple flowers to admire and stroll through. There were several different traditional tea houses within the park, along with a small lake or big pond? It was nice to just sit on one of the many benches, take in the fresh air and nature all around for several hours.

Stunning gardens located in easy reach of many other local sights. Doesn't appear to be much here at first glance but definitely worth visiting due to how peaceful, relaxing and beautiful the Gardens are once you are inside (Adult entry was ¥300). Contrary to the above, the 300 year-old Pine Tree, Bridges, Viewing Hill, Tea Houses, Kiosk, Duck Spotting area, Cherry Blossoms and other plants/flowers, nature etc. will keep you engaged as you wander around as you take the sights in. Enjoy.

This was one of the highlights of my trip. The park is practically a museum within itself. Ensure you allocate at least a couple of hours to walk around and take in the sights. Snacks and drinks are available for purchase inside the park, but they only accept cash. Clean bathrooms are conveniently located within the park. Don't forget to get a stamp at the front entrance.

Very lovely garden, that is absolutely massive and well worth the small admission fee. The views you get of the small ponds and beautiful Japanese garden techniques are absolutely gorgeous. The city skyline busts out behind many of the trees and adds a modern twist to an ancient history. This is an amazing place, and something I will not just recommend but plan to revisit when I come back to Tokyo. 9/10 overall.
