Ritsurin Park

Beautiful and tranquil Japanese garden. Should take about 1.5 to 2 hrs to walk the whole park. Road is flat and easy to walk. There are few different tea houses in different parts of the park for you to take a break. Was too early for cherry blossoms at the time of visiting, but was able to see plum blossom which was magnificent. Worth paying a small ticket price to enter the park.

Beautiful spacious garden with a variety of plants and wildlife. I saw a kingfisher swoop down over the lake! My partner missed it! 😅(🤣)

A very gigantic japanese park where you can ride a wooden boat in its pond. The landscape was nice but some boredom due to a similarity. The pond view was the best one You should have around 2-3 hours to finish it all. The parking was very limited and mostly full. Public transportation may be a good choice.

It is probably the most beautiful garden I've visited in a one-month trip to Japan. The whole place is quite big so allow at least a couple of hours to fully appreciate it. There are two different routes to follow but the map is very well detailed. Takamatsu is not on the common tourist itinerary, so the garden was not crowded at all.

Opens every day. Entrance fee is 410yen/adult. There are over 1,400 pine trees in the garden. Some of the pine trees are over 300 years old. The garden faces Mt. shiun -zan. The garden is divided into South and North garden. The South garden is a typical Japanese garden whereas the North garden is a Western garden. Be prepared to walk a lot. You can rest your tired legs by having tea at the tea house. Or you can have a boat ride.
