Taishō-en

The garden features thoughtfully arranged water elements, stones, pathways, and plant collections that follow traditional Japanese landscaping principles.

Established in 1574, the garden became part of the Numazu Imperial Villa Memorial Park, which served multiple generations of Japanese imperial families.

The garden demonstrates Japanese horticultural techniques through carefully maintained plant specimens and traditional design elements that reflect native aesthetics.

Visitors can access the garden by taking a bus from JR Numazu Station south exit to Goyotei stop, with admission fees of 410 yen for adults.

The garden maintains its original layout from the 16th century while integrating into the larger memorial park that opened to the public in 1970.
