You can meet one scenery with each step
Ritsurin Garden is a Japanese garden that was introduced as the highest rated three-star in the 2009 Michelin Green Guide Japan. Originally a daimyo garden completed by the Matsudaira clan, the lord of the Takamatsu domain, during the Edo period.
In the Meiji era, it was opened to the public as a prefectural park and has been designated as one of the national special places of scenic beauty. The taste of the four seasons and the facial expressions that change with time. It is awarded as “one step at a time” in the sense that there is one scenery per step.
Not only at night, Ritsurin Garden is full of charm in the morning and noon
~ Daytime scenery ~ The grace and venerable Japanese tea culture of Japanese boats
In the daytime when the sun is shining, the trees shine lively and it is a perfect time to take a walk. And while taking a walk, take a break in the tea room.
The Takamatsu domain has invited Sen no Rikyu’s great-grandson, Sen Soushu (the founder of the Mushakojisen family), to play a leading role in the tea ceremony, and has a long-established tea culture.
At Kikugetsutei in the park, a big tea party was held at that time. This Kikugetsutei still remains, and you can easily enjoy tea without reservation.
A Japanese boat that goes around the South Lake is a place where you can enjoy the scenery from a different perspective than walking. While listening to the boatman’s commentary, you can go through the bridge and enjoy a full 30-minute boating experience while gazing at the island floating in the pond.
