Garden

This is my second visit to Shugakuin Imperial Villa. I last visited in October four years ago. At that time, the Rinun-tei Pavilion in the Upper Palace was under renovation, but this time I was able to go to the Rinun-tei Pavilion.

Keitaku-en Garden was donated to the City of Osaka in 1926 by Sumitomo Kichizaemon Tomoito, the 15th head of the Sumitomo family, a wealthy merchant family in Osaka dating back to the Edo period (1603-1868).

It's hard to believe this is near JR Kyoto Station, bustling with tourists. It's a remarkably quiet garden.From this garden, you can see the Kyoto Tower to the southwest, so anyone can understand how close this garden is to JR Kyoto Station.This garden is Shosei-en Garden, an enclave within the grounds of Higashi Hongan-ji Temple.

This vast garden is a private estate completed over thirty years by the late Denjiro Okochi, a prominent film actor active in the early Showa era.The garden is a circuit style, designed for strolling through the forest.

Ryogen-in Temple is one of the sub-temples of Daitoku-ji Temple and is an old temple built in 1502.The Hojo (main hall), entrance, and front gate of Ryogen-in Temple are original structures and are the oldest buildings among the sub-temples of Daitoku-ji Temple.

This temple has three gardens surrounding the Hojo (main hall). Among them, the Dokuzatei Garden on the south side of the Hojo (main hall) is a Zen garden with a wild feel that contrasts with the surrounding silence. If you visit Daitoku-ji Temple, you should also visit Zuiho-in Temple.

Katsura Rikyu（Katsura Imperial Villa） was built in the 17th century as a villa for the Imperial Family, and was administered by the Ministry of the Imperial Household in the 19th century. It is a valuable building and garden that still retains the appearance of its original construction. The large grounds are dotted with four tea-ceremony pavilions surrounding a pond.

Kyoto Gyoen isn't just the Kyoto Imperial Palace. Southeast of the Kyoto Gosho is the Kyoto Sento Gosho. The Sento Gosho is the residence of the former emperor, and this place was used until the Edo period. The Kyoto Sento Gosho is the place to see the garden. This garden is a style of garden that features a path around a pond.

When you step into the vast Heian Jingu Garden, you will see four gardens.South Garden, West Garden, Central Garden, and East Garden. In the South Garden and West Garden.

Hakusason-so is located near Ginkakuji Temple. It is a vast garden created by the Japanese-style painter Hashimoto Kansetsu over a period of 30 years, and is a Japanese-style garden with a circular path around a pond.

Ruins of the Kan-in no Miya-ke Residence is not a particularly famous tourist spot. Outside the garden wall, cars pass by on Marutamachi Dori.Despite this, the place is really quiet, and both the building and the garden have a calm atmosphere.In the exhibition rooms, visitors can learn about the history of the Kyoto Gyoen, the creatures that live there, and the lives of the court nobles.
