Ritsurin Garden, Feudal garden in Takamatsu, Japan.
The garden contains six ponds, thirteen artificial hills, and 1,400 pine trees across 75 hectares of meticulously maintained grounds.
The garden construction began in 1625 under Lord Ikoma Takatoshi and reached completion in 1745 after improvements by successive feudal lords.
The Kikugetsutei Teahouse offers traditional matcha green tea service while guests observe the South Pond and surrounding landscape.
The garden opens daily from 6:30 to 18:00, with adult admission at 410 yen and child admission at 170 yen.
Visitors can experience traditional wasen boat rides on the South Pond, following the same routes used by feudal lords centuries ago.
