A Day of Quiet Beauty in Fukui

#cityplaybook If you’re looking for a peaceful escape, Fukui is the perfect destination. Far from the crowds, this city offers calm, timeless beauty and a deep connection to Japanese tradition. I started my day at Yokokan Garden, one of the most elegant Japanese gardens I’ve ever visited. The reflection of the teahouse on the pond and the sound of rustling leaves—it’s pure serenity. Nearby, I visited Kyū Gosen-sui Yashiki, a historic wooden villa that offers a glimpse into the refined lifestyles of the past. It’s quiet, intimate, and incredibly charming. Lastly, I walked around the Fukui Prefectural Government building—you might not expect it, but during cherry blossom season, it turns into one of the most beautiful spots in town! Why I recommend Fukui: ・Perfect for those seeking calm and traditional beauty ・A hidden gem during cherry blossom season 🌸 📍Fukui City, Fukui Prefecture, Japan #fukuitravel #hiddenjapan #yokokangarden #quietescape #japaninbloom #localjapan #cityplaybook #fukuimoments

Yōkōkan Garden

A pleasant surprise in the city and a short walk from our hotel and the station. This small garden is a quiet place for a contemplative stroll around the pond. You can visit the feudal lord’s (reconstructed) villa overlooking the pond and take tea if you wish. The rooms in the villa are open to visitors. This is one of my favorite places in the city. I like taking a stroll in the garden, sitting in the villa watching the koi or reading a book, or having quiet conversations with friends. You can also participate in tea ceremonies here on weekends. Besides being a beautiful garden and villa, this place has an interesting history. There are English-speaking local guides on weekends, so if you get a chance, try to talk to one of them because they have stories to tell. #givethanks #givethanks
