À propos
Faits rapides: Stepping inside feels like walking through three distinct garden styles: traditional Japanese, formal French, and English landscape. Vibrant cherry blossoms paint the grounds in spring, attracting both photographers and picnickers who enjoy the serene views.
Points forts: A quirky tradition here involves the cherry blossom trees that bloom in three distinct waves thanks to over 1,000 varieties planted around the gardens, allowing visitors to enjoy sakura for almost half the year. Visitors often pause near the old French Formal Garden fountain, where the sound of water mixing with delicate floral scents from over 20,000 plants creates a serene and almost magical atmosphere.
Conseils d'initiés
- Enter through the Okido or Sendagaya Gate on weekdays to avoid crowds at Shinjuku Gate.
- Head to the Japanese garden pond and the French formal garden for the best photos of blossoms and reflections.
- Bring a picnic blanket and snacks from a nearby konbini, but arrive early on sunny weekends to secure lawn space.
- Wear comfortable shoes for gravel paths and layered clothing, spring mornings can be chilly while afternoons warm up.
