Shinjuku Gyoen

This garden is a varied as the fashion styles in Shinjuku district. It is a garden that features 3 different gardens; an English landscape garden with wide lawns, a traditional Japanese garden with teahouses and a symmetrically arranged, formal French garden. Furthermore, there are some forested areas and a greenhouse. This garden used to be a part of the Imperial family’s garden in 1904 but in 1948, the garden was open to public hereafter.

The large number of cherry trees undoubtedly makes this a popular spot during the cherry blossom (hanami) season. Shinjuku Gyoen is a place that is worth a visit. Who doesn’t love gardens anyway, especially when flowers are blooming everywhere? :)
