Kyu-Furukawa Gardens
Kyu-Furukawa Gardens uniquely combines Western and Japanese garden styles, featuring a formal rose garden around a Western-style mansion and a traditional Japanese landscape garden. This cultural property showcases early 20th century garden design.
What to Expect
The upper terrace features geometric rose beds surrounding an elegant Western mansion, while the lower area contains a traditional Japanese garden with a pond, tea house, and carefully arranged stones and plants. The contrast between the two styles creates a unique aesthetic experience.
