In addition to its lively, bustling streets, Tokyo also has quite a few small gardens full of Japanese charm. This time I visited Mukojima-Hyakkaen Gardens, where different flowers bloom in every season. Walking through the grounds, you can enjoy the leisurely and elegant atmosphere of a Japanese garden.
The garden isn’t very large, but it has a rich variety of flowers and trees, creating different scenery as the seasons change. It’s a great place to slow down, take a walk, and snap some photos. It’s also not far from Tokyo Skytree, Sensoji Temple, and the Sumida River, so it’s easy to visit them all on the same day.
The biggest surprise was that admission was only JPY 150! In a city as expensive as Tokyo, being able to enjoy seasonal flowers at such an affordable price makes it truly worth a visit.
