So much beautiful nature and landscaping. Trees, flowers, plants, shrubs of all kinds beautifullly arranged. I highly recommend it for anyone that would like some nice quiet time or who would like to take a walk in really beautiful and tranquil surroundings. I imagine horticulture lovers will be in heaven here, as well, almost all plants are very nicely labeled.

I went on a Tuesday and it was free (which it always is on Tuesdays). I took about three hours or so to walk around and laze about a bit and I think I got to see the majority of the gardens. To me it felt like I was in a sort of timeless place that both had an intimate, nurturing feeling yet also felt quite open and spacious (the gardens are quite large), a very nice afternoon that I won’t soon forget. Pick up a guide when you enter for a good overview of the gardens.

Still pretty cool, even in the dead of winter. I want to come back in the spring though and see the cherry blossoms.
