Rokkaen

The Rokkaen garden combines Japanese and European architectural elements across its grounds, featuring distinct western and eastern building wings with curved windows.

Built in 1913, the garden estate showcases architectural designs by Josiah Conder, incorporating a four-story tower and specific structural elements from the early 20th century.

The garden includes traditional tea ceremony spaces and Japanese-style rooms decorated with chrysanthemum-patterned nail covers, representing local craftsmanship and customs.

Visitors can explore multiple walking paths through the garden grounds, access the tea house facilities, and participate in guided tours of both architectural wings.

The garden features bay windows in its western wing that provide different viewing perspectives of the landscape, while maintaining traditional Japanese garden elements.
