Discover Affordable and Beautiful Gardens
Japanese gardens in Tokyo are remarkable for their ability to preserve natural beauty amid a bustling metropolis. These gardens often feature traditional elements like koi ponds, stone lanterns, and meticulously pruned trees, creating serene landscapes.
Historically, many of these gardens were originally built as private estates for daimyo, or feudal lords, during the Edo period (1603–1868) and were designed to offer a peaceful retreat from urban life.
Today, they provide a unique contrast, with lush greenery framed by towering skyscrapers in the background, creating a surreal blend of nature and modernity that reflects Tokyo’s dynamic history and development.
