#AbsolutelyFreeTrip

Walking along the stone-walled paths, I felt as if I'd been transported to the world of a period drama. ✨
I visited in the quiet morning, and the space, filled only with the sounds of birds and the wind, was a truly soothing experience.
Each garden has its own unique charm, reflecting the aesthetic sense of Satsuma, with its dry landscape gardens and pond-style gardens.
I was touched to see the locals carefully tending the gardens, and to see how history and lifestyle still thrive.
Enjoy a quiet stroll alone, or stroll the charming paths with your partner.
Chiran Samurai Residence Gardens is the perfect place for a peaceful, Japanese journey. 🍃
