[ Today’s famous “Sakura” spot-2 : “Hama-rikyu Gardens” @Tokyo ]

“Hama-rikyu Gardens” is a metropolitan pond garden.
It is excursion-type artificial pond garden which it takes in seawater from Tokyo Bay.
We enjoy a change of the scenery by the flow and ebb of tides.

“Ume” and “Nano-hana” (rape blossoms) is in full bloom at the present time of March, too.It is one of the recommended “sakura” spot that you can thoroughly enjoy a Japanese style garden while watching “sakura”.
