☆ Tokugawa Garden

#100 Ways to Travel

November 3, 2024 will be the 20th anniversary of Tokugawa Garden, so now is the perfect time to introduce Tokugawa Garden!

This garden was designed in the most popular pond and spring tour style during the Edo period. It also used the difference in terrain in the garden to cleverly condense the Kiso Three Rivers, Ise Bay, Nobi Plain, etc. in the central region of Japan into the design of this daimyo garden.

Whether it is the Huxian Bridge that you see as soon as you enter the park, the Longmen Waterfall that increases its water volume every 20 minutes, the Ozone Waterfall along the trail, the willows and lotus beside the Longxian Lake, the Turtle Island in the lake, the pine trees on the shore that symbolize longevity, the stone bridges connecting the floating islands, the stone steps on the hillside, the wind chimes of Shishuian...the list goes on... Every place is worth for tourists to stop and watch quietly, and listen to the chirping of insects, birds, flowing water and wind chimes.

Even if you sit in the seemingly inconspicuous rest pavilion by the lake when you are tired of walking, you will gain unexpected benefits. Once you sit down and take your seat, you'll be able to take in the beautiful scenery of Tokugawa Garden at a glance. No matter where you look in the garden, you can feel the ingenuity of the original designer. It's really amazing and worth the trip!
