Tachibana Garden, Daimyo garden in Yanagawa, Japan.
Tachibana Garden is a daimyo garden in Yanagawa featuring traditional Japanese landscaping with ponds and black pines arranged throughout. The grounds include seasonal plantings and historic buildings spread across the property.
The garden was built in 1738 by the Tachibana family as a private retreat for Sadayoshi Tachibana, the fifth lord of the Yanagawa domain. The property was maintained and preserved through generations.
The grounds display both Western and Japanese architectural styles side by side, reflecting building changes during Japan's modernization in the early 20th century. Visitors can observe how traditional and modern elements coexist here.
The garden is open to visitors daily and can be explored at a relaxed pace. Plan enough time to walk through the different areas and view the buildings without rushing.
The site houses a museum displaying antiques collected and preserved by the family over four centuries. These objects tell the story of the household through different periods.
