A 58-hectare national garden in central Tokyo containing three distinct garden styles: a French formal garden, an English landscape garden, and a traditional Japanese garden centered on a large pond. Established as an imperial garden in 1906, it holds over 1,000 cherry trees representing 65 varieties, making it a major blossom destination with a longer season than single-variety plantings. Entry is restricted to alcohol-free enjoyment, distinguishing it from livelier public parks during festival seasons.
