Gyokusen-en, Japanese garden in Kanazawa, Japan.
The garden spans one hectare and contains a central pond with three islets, connected by small bridges and surrounded by walking paths.
Lord Toshitsune Maeda initiated the construction of Gyokusen-Immaru Garden in 1634, which remained under the care of successive lords until the feudal system ended.
The garden incorporates a dedicated tea house where visitors participate in traditional matcha ceremonies following precise Japanese customs and rituals.
Entry costs 700 yen for adults and includes access to all garden areas, with special rates available for tea ceremonies requiring advance reservations.
The garden features a Korean pentaphylla pine grown from seeds, reflecting the historical connection between the garden's creator and Korean heritage.
