Atami Baien, Plum garden in Atami, Japan.

The garden contains 450 plum trees representing 60 different varieties, arranged along both sides of the Ui River stream in Shizuoka Prefecture.

Founded in 1866 by merchant Mogi Sobeh, Atami Baien officially opened in 1886 under the guidance of Nagayo Sensai, establishing a botanical destination.

The annual Plum Garden Festival runs from January to March, featuring tea ceremonies, taiko drum performances, and traditional concerts near the plum trees.

Visitors can reach the garden by taking a bus from JR Atami Station to Ainohara housing complex or walking 10 minutes from JR Kinomiya Station.

The garden marks one of Japan's first locations to display plum blossoms each year, with early varieties beginning to bloom in December.
