Yuushien Garden, Matsue City, Japan
Shimane Prefecture is beautiful, uncrowded, and relatively niche. If you like natural scenery and Japanese gardens, don't miss Yuushien Garden in Matsue City, Shimane Prefecture. After all, during the May Day holiday, the most beautiful peonies in Japan are here.
🔴 Peony Garden Tour
Yuushien Garden is a Japanese garden with a peony theme, following the aesthetic taste of "harmony, tranquility, fun, and color." The "Pond Peony" event, which is limited to the May Day Golden Week, is an annual event. 30,000 blooming peonies float on the water, forming a magnificent sea of peonies. It is truly "a beauty of national grace and divine fragrance!"
By the way, before the end of the event, yellow peonies will be replaced to create a "Golden Pond Peony," which is spectacular in another way.
🟢 Four Seasons Garden
The peonies in Yuushien Garden can be seen all year round, but the 40,000-square-meter garden is even better. The pond-style Japanese garden, centered on the pond, uses the design of the lake tour route, and the interest of the scenery is very beautiful.
In spring, you can enjoy the flowers. In summer, you can experience the cool and dreamy "Sea of Clouds Garden" (recommended!). In autumn, this is a famous place for red leaves. In winter, there are snow scenes and lively lighting events. You won't be disappointed in any season.
🟣 Restaurant and Cafe
In addition to viewing flowers, taking photos, and visiting the garden, there are 4 restaurants and 2 cafes in Yuushien Garden, from kaiseki cuisine to Japanese set meals, from coffee to tea and sweets. It feels great to enjoy the food while enjoying the scenery!
In short, if your itinerary is in Shimane Prefecture and you are staying in Matsue, you must go to Yuushien Garden! Hmm~
