[Japan 🇯🇵] Ritsurin Garden: A Pine-Perfect Japanese Escape

🛻Transport: By train or car Take a local train on the JR Kotoku Line to Ritsurinkoen-Kitaguchi Station (栗林公園北口駅) 🌟Tips: 🌟Bring sunscreen and walkable shoes for your day walk 🌟It could be an hour visit if you are not so into plant, or half a day. Ritsurin Garden isn't just any garden; it's a masterpiece. They've seriously outdone themselves with the 1400 beautifully sculpted pine trees 🌳– it feels like every single one is a work of art! The park's composition is so perfect, making every single photo 📷 you snap look like it belongs in a postcard. Beyond the pines, they have some really precious plantings too 🌿, like the ancient five-leaf pine 👴. It's ideal for a half-day chill walk, letting you soak in all that serene beauty 🌟. And if you're a fan of Japanese tea ceremony 🌱🌱, you can even experience one right in the middle of the park by the lake – how cool is that? Don't forget to grab some food to feed the huge, friendly koi (they all look like the Pokemon Magikarp), Japanese carp 🐠. They're surprisingly eager 🌟! Highly recommend adding this to your Takashima trip. #historicallandmarks
