Shirotori Garden, Japanese strolling garden in Atsuta-nishimachi, Nagoya, Japan.

The 3.7-hectare Shirotori Garden features a central pond symbolizing Ise Bay and a southwestern hill representing Mount Ontake, connected by flowing water features.

Constructed between 1983 and 1991, the garden originated from a former lumberyard and became part of the World Design Exhibition in 1989 before opening to visitors.

The Seiu-tei pavilion at the heart of the garden hosts traditional Japanese tea ceremonies, where visitors experience authentic green tea preparation methods.

Located at 2-5 Atsuta Nishimachi, the garden welcomes visitors from 9:00 AM to 4:30 PM, with adult admission at 300 yen and free entry for children.

The garden incorporates three distinct water expressions: gentle waves reflecting scenery, fountains mimicking ocean waves, and tidal patterns along sandy shorelines.

Location: Atsuta-nishimachi

Official opening: April 14, 1991

Part of: World Design Exhibition 1989
