Early Apr '09

駒込にある国指定の特別名勝です。
枝垂桜が有名ですが、庭園はとても美しく都会の中にあるとは思えないほどに緑豊かです。
特にツツジが美しいと評判です。

再度ゆっくり歩いてきました。
もみじが多く植えられているため、秋の紅葉も美しいことが容易に想像できます。

Rikugi-en is located in Komagome area, Tokyo.
This site is famous for 'Shidare zakura' (Prunus pendula 'Pendula') but also garden itself is extremely beautiful.
Therefore, this garden is designated as '
Special Scenic Beauty Garden' by Japanese government in 1953.
When you walk into Rikugi-en, you will feel like you are not in the middle of concrete jungle.

Moreover, Rhododendron brings another iconic character to this garden in a late Spring time.

PS (May 2014)
I visited this beautiful garden again and walked around slowly.
Many acer trees were planted therefore I can imagine easily those will be very beautiful in autumn.
