Kyoto, Japan - You can take pictures of the reflection of the Kyoto Tower on the small bridge and lake: Shoseien Garden

#Shuchengen, another unpopular attraction in downtown Kyoto, is a pond-filled garden that once belonged to the villa of #Higashihonganji. It is very close to Higashihonganji and can be visited together. The entrance fee is ¥500.

The most interesting thing is to be able to capture the reflection of #京都塔 standing on the lake surface of the small bridge, and the surrounding green land and trees are also captured in the frame, which is instantly beautiful.

#Shuchengen is a picturesque temple garden dating back to the mid-1600s. It has a teahouse, a large pond and cherry trees. It is also called #Zhi Ke Di because of the sour oranges (limes, like yellow limes, can be used as Chinese medicine) planted around it. There are thirteen famous scenic spots in the park, which are named after the precious calligraphy left by many literati and poets.

The pond here is lush and green, giving you a sense of walking into the famous painting #Monet’sGarden. There are few tourists in the park, so you can take a leisurely stroll. The park also has a special wall made of irregular stones of different sizes, some square and some round. Higashi Honganji staff will give a special introduction when they take people on a visit.

Jiancheng Garden (Zhi Ke Residence)
Opening hours: 0900-1700
Address: Japan 600-8190 Kyoto, Shimogyo Ward, Higashitamamizucho
