- Former Hikone Domain Matsubara Suburban Residence Gardens (Ohama Goten)
- Travel / Tourism
- Shiga Pref. Hikoneshi Matsubarachou 515
- A Japanese strolling garden built around a central pond located in Matsubara-cho, Hikone City. The garden’s moat and pond are connected to Lake Biwa and incorporate a method called “shioiri” which sinks their water levels with that of the lakes; this garden was the first in Japan to employ this method using fresh water. Twice a year, in spring and autumn, the garden is specially opened for a limited time to the public.

Shiga Areas
Visitors to Shiga prefecture are almost always hopping east across the prefectural border from Kyoto, and they are almost certainly Lake Biwa-bound. Covering an area of 670 square kilometers, Lake Biwa makes up the bulk of Shiga prefecture, with beautiful lakeside paths that offer myriad walking and cycling opportunities, connecting a string of museums, shrines, and picturesque views that finally lead you to Hikone Castle on the eastern side of the lake.
