Explore the Shinjuku Gyoen National Garden

Visit the Shinjuku Gyoen National Garden to stroll through one of Tokyo's most historic areas. Formerly the residence of the Naito family during the Edo period (17th-19th centuries), it was transferred to the Imperial Family. It was first established in 1949 and is now a national garden. It is regarded as one of Japan's most stunning gardens.

Because it combines three traditional garden styles, French Formal, English Landscape, and Japanese Traditional, the garden is regarded as one of the best. Due to the approximately 1,500 cherry trees in the garden, it also happens to be one of the greatest places in Tokyo to see the cherry blossoms. There are also tulip trees, cypresses, and Himalayan cedars. When the leaves start to turn crimson and gold in the fall, a lot of people visit the garden. The garden also has a greenhouse, beautiful ponds, and a number of pavilions.
