MEIJI JINGU GARDEN

The Garden was originally a part of compounds of a daimyo yashiki (a feudal lord’s mansion) owned by the Iis.

Since the beginning of the Meiji Era(1868~ ) it became the Imperial estate and was put improvements into by the order of His Majesty the Emperor Meiji.

Her Majesty the Empress Shoken as well as His Majesty frequented this historic place.

It spreads 83,000 square meter with the reminiscences of Musashino fields.
In it there are spots of interest such as Kakuuntei (a tea house), Otsuridai(a fishing platform). Azumaya (a resting house). Minamiike (a pond), Shobuda(an iris field) and Kiyomasaido (a well),each of which never fail to attract you through the year whenever you vist,especially at the changes of the four seasons.

Among the glamorous groups of flower, irises in June is the best to observe, which the late Her Majesty cherished a deep affection for.
