✨What is Kenrokuen✨
A strolling garden, one of the three most famous gardens in Japan
Alongside Mito Kairakuen and Okayama Korakuen, Kenrokuen is one of the three most famous gardens in Japan✨✨
It is said that Kenrokuen is a garden that was created comprehensively by incorporating elements of the strolling style, while also making full use of gardening techniques from various eras✨
The strolling style is not a garden that can be enjoyed seated from the hojo of a temple or the shoin of a palace, but a garden that makes the most of the land, digging a large pond in the garden, building an artificial hill, and dotting it with pavilions and teahouses, allowing you to enjoy the whole garden while stopping by them✨
There are several ponds and meandering streams that connect them, and mountains are built with excavated soil and a variety of trees are planted, so it is also said to be a "walking garden with artificial hills, forests and springs"✨
It is a garden that makes you feel that the origins of Japanese gardens lie here😊
