Unique garden of the Taisho period with a mixture of Japanese and Western tastes
Open: 9am - 5pm (entry until 4:30pm)
Closed: Dec. 29 - Jan. 1
Admission fee: 150 yen (adults 12+), 70 yen (seniors)
Access: 7 minute walk from Kami-Nakazato Station (Keihin-Tohoku Line), 7 minute walk from Nishigahara Station (Namboku Line), 12 minute walk from Komagome Station North exit (JR Yamanote Line)
Tip: the Rikugien Gardens are only a short walk away (20 minutes). Since you're in the area anyway, why no visit both in one day?
PERSONAL THOUGHTS
★★★☆☆
It's not very big, but the Japanese garden is very impressive. Western garden is pretty nice too, but I'm not sure how much will be left of it when the roses aren't blooming. Seeing the whole garden doesn't take too long, but considering the entrance fee I don't see how this is a problem. The only downside of this garden. You can't enter the Western-style residence. Unless you plan to eat or drink something in the café inside or when you've booked a tour. Other than that. Just visit this garden when you're in the area!
