Koishikawa Korakuen Garden is one of the oldest gardens in Tokyo. It was built during the early Edo period (1600-1867) by a ruling family associated with the Tokugawa. It is a landscape garden that creates Chinese and Japanese scenery in a miniature form. Popular seasons include spring (plum blossom and cherry blossom viewing) and autumn (fall colors). The garden is easily accessible: the nearest stations are Iidabashi station and Korakuen station.
