From its opening during the 1700s and until today, Rikugien is considered one of the most beautiful gardens in Tokyo. Made in kaiyuu-shiki style with a pond in the center, the scenery of the garden depicts that of a traditional Japanese poem. Rikugien is especially phenomenal during cherry blossom and fall foliage seasons.
