Yanagisawa Yoshiyasu, who served the shogunate as a Tairo-kaku (“Great Elder”) during the era of Tokugawa Tsunayoshi, the fifth-generation Tokugawa shogun, created this garden in an area full of daimyo residences. With its undulating paths and well-planned design, the Japanese garden is particularly famous for its azaleas and weeping sakura close to the garden entrance. The gardens are lit up at night during the spring when cherry blossoms are in bloom and again in autumn when the foliage is turning colors. The garden evokes scenery of Kishu (in Wakayama) with the middle Daisensui Pond and its Nakanoshima Island. Many foreign tourists enjoy visiting Rikugien.

Reviewed:2019/06/11 Great little stop on a long day of sightseeing

Located in the Rikugien Garden, this was a perfect little stop to sit, rest and rejuvenate. While I loved the garden this tea house was a great break with a beautiful view. It was a little crowded...

Its the best season for cherry blossoms!!
We could spend relaxed time and felt Japanese spring.

5分咲きの枝垂れ桜を満喫しました。
歩き疲れてのお抹茶とお菓子の休憩時間は穏やかで、日本人の心を感じる事ができます。
おすすめです。

Reviewed:2016/07/21 tea by the lake

It was a hot summers day when I visited Rikugien Park and found this lovely tea house by the lake. The matcha was chilled and served with beautiful little cakes. Wonderfully refreshing to the body...
