Tokori Ueno Bamboo Garden Shop | Review by 張婷

GALANT

This shop is overflowing with retro vibes, starting with their sample case that greets you at its front. To this side of this case is a narrow staircase that, when climbed to the second floor, leads to a foreign space wrapped in dazzling light. You can watch the JR trains come and go from the window-side seats.

Koishikawa Korakuen Gardens

Located in Korakuen, Bunkyo Ward, Tokyo, this is a stroll garden with a central pond and landscaped hills and spring water. The garden embodies four landscapes: sea, mountains, rivers, and countryside, offering changing views as one walks around. Incorporating Chinese scenic spots and styles such as the Engetsu Bridge and Seiko Tsutsumi, it presents a world beautifully balancing Japanese and Chinese elements.
