Moon viewing at Mukojima Hyakka-en

14 – 16 September 2016
Mukojima Hyakka-en

 
Mukojima Hyakka-en, located in Sumida-ku, eastern Tokyo, is a pleasant Japanese garden dating back to the Edo period. Throughout the year local flowers bloom beautifully (Hyakka-en means the “garden of many flowers”).

 

This year again, on the occasion of o-tsukimi, Hyakka-en extends its opening hours exceptionally. Wander into the garden full of typical Japanese autumn flowers, such as pink hagi (lespédèzes), yellow ominaeshi (Patrinia scabiosifolia) and violet kikyos (Japanese bellflowers).
