Discover the enchanting gardens of the historic Hosokawa Residence in Tokyo's Bunkyo area. A picturesque stone bridge graces the pond at the garden's heart, creating an idyllic backdrop for photos that encapsulate the changing seasons of Japan – from cherry blossoms in spring to the lush greenery of early summer and the vibrant red leaves of autumn. Explore indoor photography at the two-story wooden pavilion, Shoseikaku. Other recommended photography sites include Mejiro Garden, featuring a background waterfall flowing from the garden’s rockery, Koishikawa Korakuen, a stunning Japanese garden from the early Edo period, and the former Furukawa Residence, a classic Western-style building exuding a stately atmosphere.
