[Tokyo] A hidden gem! A beautiful Japanese garden in the big city

This is a feudal lord's garden from the early Edo period. The garden spreads out around a pond. If you look at the garden alone, it looks like a Japanese garden, but when you see the skyscrapers reflected in the pond and the Shinkansen trains running by, you'll feel like you're in Tokyo. This is a recommended spot where you can see both past and present scenery at once. It's a large area, so it's a hidden gem of a tourist spot where you can stroll around leisurely without it being crowded even on weekends. ✱----------------------------------------------- [Name] Kyu-Shiba Rikyu Gardens [Location] 1-4-1 Kaigan, Minato-ku, Tokyo [Access] About 1 minute walk from the north exit of Hamamatsucho Station on the JR Yamanote Line and Keihin Tohoku Line [Opening hours] 09:00-17:00 [Closed] Year-end and New Year holidays (December 29th to January 1st of the following year) [Admission] 150 yen for adults, 70 yen for those aged 65 and over (Free for elementary school students and younger and junior high school students living and studying in Tokyo) Visit date: October 2024 -----------------------------------------------✱ #TokyoTrip2024 #100TravelStyles #DomesticTravel #Tokyo #TokyoTourism #Kyu-ShibaRikyuGardens #Hamamatsucho #HiddenGems #JapaneseGardens #Gardens #Tourism
