Citywalk in Japan! A hidden gem of a Japanese garden in Tokyo!

In Tokyo, you can also experience the unique charm of a Japanese garden. [Former Asakura Residence 🏠] Located in a quiet corner of Sarugakucho, the low-key exterior is perfect for niche tourists. 🌹 The 100-yen ticket is almost like a charity. ☀️ On a sunny day, the beauty here is breathtaking. Sit on the tatami in the Japanese-style room and quietly enjoy the beautiful view of the garden. The main building has two floors, both of which are open to visitors. Walking on the old wooden floor, accompanied by the creaking sound 🎶 It's like traveling through time ⌚️ and seeing the garden again. In the reception room, sit quietly for a moment, and the view outside the window is refreshing. The "Between the Cedars 🌳" on the west side of the residence is the biggest highlight here, consisting of three living rooms. Walking into the corridor of the room, there is a view at every step. 🍂 The room at the corner on the east side shows the 📖 study style. Simple and elegant, the details are all revealed. The other two living rooms are in the sukiya style, with a simple and elegant design. ☁️ Full of traditional Japanese aesthetics. 📍 Address: 2920 Sarugakucho, Shibuya City, Tokyo 🚄 Transportation: Take the Tokyu Toyoko Line, get off at Daikanyama Station, and walk for 7 minutes. ⏰ Opening hours: March to October: 10:00–18:00 November to February: 10:00–16:30 Closed on Mondays and New Year's holidays, and admission ends 30 minutes before closing. 💡 🔸 Travel tips: 1. Shoes must be removed when visiting the interior, so it is recommended to wear socks on the day and follow the instructions. 2. If you need to bring luggage, you can store it for free at the ticket office. 🆓 3. After the visit, it is recommended to go to the nearby Caffe Michelangel for a cup of coffee ☕️, and then go to the Tsutaya Bookstore in Daikanyama for a leisurely stroll. 4. Some rooms in the garden may be temporarily closed (but some will also be opened).
