Tokugawa Garden, Japanese strolling garden in Nagoya, Japan

The 2.3-hectare garden centers around Ryusenko Lake with waterfalls, wooden bridges, and carefully arranged rock formations representing natural landscapes of Japan.

Built in 1695 as a retirement villa for Tokugawa Mitsutomo, the second lord of Owari Province, the garden underwent reconstruction after World War II destruction.

The garden demonstrates traditional Japanese landscape design principles through its waterfalls, tea houses, and seasonal plant arrangements around the central lake.

Visitors can enter the garden from 9:30 am to 5:30 pm, with adult admission at 300 yen and free entry for children under junior high school age.

The Ryumon no Taki waterfall contains a mechanism that creates unexpected water surges, adding a dynamic element to the garden experience.
