This is a valuable Edo Era “daimyo” (feudal lord) garden because it one of the few remaining gardens created on the grounds of a castle. The autumn leaves are at their best in late November. It is from the beauty of the autumn foliage that the garden has been nicknamed “Momijidani Garden” (Autumn Leaf Valley Garden). At Koshouan, an adjacent teahouse, you can admire the garden and rest while having some “matcha” tea and Japanese sweets.
