📍 From Bunkyo City Office, Japan
One of Tokyo’s oldest surviving Edo-period gardens, Koishikawa Korakuen provides a peaceful escape in the heart of Bunkyo City. Completed in the 17th century under the guidance of the Mito branch of the Tokugawa family, it blends Chinese and Japanese landscaping elements around a central pond. Visitors can stroll along winding paths and admire stone bridges, small shrines, and seasonal highlights like plum blossoms in early spring and fiery maple foliage in autumn. Its teahouse pavilions offer an authentic glimpse into classical Japanese culture, and the garden’s proximity to Tokyo Dome and convenient public transport make it easily accessible for a leisurely outing or a quick city escape. Admission fees and opening times vary by season, so check ahead.
