Mōri Kai-no-kami's Residence, Daimyo garden in Roppongi Hills, Japan

The Mori Garden spans 4300 square meters with a central pond, waterfalls, streams, and stone paths forming a traditional Japanese garden pattern.

The residence belonged to Lord Mori of the Chofu Domain and served as the location where ten Ako Ronin warriors performed ritual suicide in 1703.

The garden incorporates design elements from the Edo period, including natural stone arrangements and water features that reflect traditional Japanese aesthetics.

The garden opens daily with direct access from Roppongi Station on the Hibiya Line and a four-minute walk from Roppongi Station on the Oedo Line.

The garden pond contains descendants of medaka fish that were taken to space, while wild mallard ducks return each spring to raise their ducklings.
