Kyu Shiba Rikyu Garden

The Kyū Shiba Rikyū Garden (旧芝離宮恩賜庭園?), also known as Kyū Shiba Rikyū Onshi Teien ("Former Shiba Villa Gardens") is a public garden and former imperial garden in Minato, Tokyo, Japan. The garden is one of two surviving Edo period clan gardens in modern Tokyo, Japan, the other being Koishikawa Kōrakuen Garden in Koishikawa, Bunkyō, Tokyo. Kyū Shiba Rikyū is often regarded as the most beautifully designed garden in Tokyo, and was once called the "most beautiful" scene in Japan.

Famous quotes containing the word garden:

    Little Trotty Wagtail, he waddled in the mud,
    And left his little footmarks, trample where he would.
    He waddled in the water-pudge, and waggle went his tail,
    And chirrupt up his wings to dry upon the garden rail.
    John Clare (1793–1864)
