Hama-rikyu Gardens

Hama-rikyu Gardens

Hamarikyu Gardens is a garden that combines the beauty of nature and history, located in the heart of Tokyo. This garden is divided into the South Garden and the North Garden, with the South Garden being particularly famous for its "Shioiri Pond." This pond features a unique system where seawater from Tokyo Bay naturally flows in and out with the tides, making it the only one of its kind in the city.

There are more than 100 cherry trees in the gardens, and during the cherry blossom season in spring, the opening hours are extended by one hour, attracting many visitors. At the "Nakajima Tea House" in the pond, you can enjoy traditional Japanese matcha tea.

The garden originates from the "Kofu-Hama Mansion" built by Matsudaira Takanobu, the younger brother of the fourth shogun, Ietsuna, and it was later named "Hama-Goten." The current garden was completed during the time of the eleventh shogun, Ienori, and was opened to the public in 1946.

Designated as a special scenic spot and historic site by the government, this garden is a rare place where the history of the Tokugawa shogunate coexists with the modern skyline of Tokyo. How about spending a special moment at this historical garden facing Tokyo Bay while enjoying the seasonal beauty throughout the year?
