Viewing seasonal Japanese gardens and exhibitions

Enjoy a traditional Japanese cultural experience with a visit to a Japanese garden and art exhibition. This Japanese garden covers a sprawling 20,000 square meters, and is home to three tea ceremony halls that are registered cultural properties. The garden holds over 40 varieties of bamboo and more than 300 camellia flowers, as well as plum and cherry blossom trees, hydrangeas and autumn foliage, for beautiful views in all seasons. The garden also hosts special exhibits and planned art exhibitions in spring and fall, and an exhibition of the facility's collection about three times each year.
