Shinjuku Gyoen

 

Be the first to review

Covering 58 hectares, Shinjuku Gyoen is one of Tokyo’s largest parks. It was opened to the public in 1949, after it had served as a garden for the Imperial Family since 1903.
Shinjuku Gyoen features three garden types: an English landscape garden with wide lawns, a traditional Japanese garden with teahouses and a symmetrically arranged, formal French garden. Furthermore, there are some forested areas and a greenhouse (the greenhouse is being reconstructed until 2011).
Shinjuku Gyoen is home to a large number of cherry trees of more than a dozen different species, making the park one of Tokyo’s most popular and pleasant hanami spots during late March and most of April.- japan-guide.com
