"Sankei-en Wisteria" (三渓園の藤), 2011, by Morimura Rei/Ray (森村 玲), a Tokyo based woodblock artist, born (in Tokyo) in 1948.

Sankei-en (三溪園; literally, the "Three Creeks Garden") is a traditional Japanese-style garden in Naka Ward, Yokohama, Japan, which opened in 1906Sankei-en was designed and built by Tomitaro Hara (原富太郎, 1868–1939), known by the pseudonym Sankei Hara, who was an affluent silk trader from Saitama Prefecture. Almost all of its buildings in the garden are historically significant structures bought by Hara himself in locations all over the country, among them Tokyo, Kyoto, Kamakura, Gifu Prefecture, and Wakayama Prefecture. Ten have been declared Important Cultural Property, and three more are Tangible Cultural Properties of Japan designated by the City of Yokohama.Badly damaged during World War II, the garden was donated in 1953 to the City of Yokohama, which entrusted it to the Sankeien Hoshōkai Foundation (三溪園保勝会, Sankeien Hoshōkai). Sankei-en was then restored almost to its pre-war condition.

Sankeien aka 'Three Creeks Garden"" was opened in 1906 and is a traditional Japanese garden. It was designed and built by Tomitaro Hara who was a silk trader. Almost all of the buildings inside are historically significant structures, having been brought by Hara from all over Japan. Ten of these buildings have been declared Important Cultural Properties. Badly damaged during WW2, the garden was donated to Yokohama, and restored to pre-war conditions. Sankeien has a total surface of 175 thousand square meters and features ponds, steams, undulating paths constructed by Hara himself, and a 3-story pagoda that was originally constructed in Kyoto in 1457. The garden took 6 years to build and was opened 2 years later. During Hara's lifetime the garden became a place for Meiji period artists. There is a lot of history in the park, so if you're a fan of history and natures it's a garden you shouldn't miss.

/Aucuba japonica/, アオキバ, Family Garryaceae It's been a while since the last plant post, so this time we're having two plants in the spotlight. First up is A. japonica, my first encounter with the family Garryaceae. This family of plants is distributed in warm, temperate/subtropical regions, and doesn't occur in the Philippines. The genus Aucuba itself is Native to East Asia, with the name being derived from the local アオキ葉 or アオキ. Aoki grow along shaded streams and moist thickets. Its variegated form is popular in gardens. The plant is distinguishable by its opposite, broadly lanceolate leaves with toothed margins and opposite veins. The stipules are large and also opposite [but unlike Rubiacs like coffee, not interpetiolar?]. Male and female plants in this family are separate, a condition called dioecy. Aoki flowers are arranged in cymes, and are 4-merous [having four of each part], with deep purple petals. The stamens of male flowers alternate with the petals. The ovaries of female flowers are inferior [positioned below the perianth]. Can you tell which of the photos is male or female? Floral formula Male: Ca4 Co4 A4 Female: B2 Ca4 Co4 G1inf Fruits are bright red; tantalizing but toxic! One of the Japanese garden plants closely related to Aoki is the Kousa (dogwood, Cornaceae). If you don't count gardenias and coffee. Scroll down my feed to find a related post! 🤣 Reference: Fell, Derek (1992). The essential gardener.

Tomitaro Hara (1868-1939), a wealthy merchant and tycoon of the silk trade, originally built Sankeien Garden for his personal use. In 1914, he acquired an abandoned 3-story pagoda, which was originally built in 1457. Hara had it disassembled, shipped, restored, and reassembled in his garden.

JAPAN 2022

MAIN TOURIST DESTINATIONS FOR A TRAVEL TO JAPAN

Natural parks, high-end restaurants, and hot springs are among the top spots for tourists visiting Japan’s destinations. Buddhist and Shinto temples. Protected natural areas. Imperial castles that are intact despite being built thousands of years ago. Cherry blossoms.

Tokyo, capital of Japan In Japanese, Tokyo means “the capital of the East”. Traveling to Japan without going to the capital is like visiting France without spending a few days in Paris: the experience is simply incomplete. Some say Tokyo never ends as it is one of the most metropolitan, diverse and convulsive cities in all of Asia.

Located in the Kantō region, it is the center of the commercial, political, cultural and culinary activities of the whole country. Therefore, among the tourist destinations, it is perhaps the most expensive of all. Since its founding in 1457 at the foot of Mount Fuji, it has witnessed the rise of dynasties and the fall of empires. As one of the strongest metropolises in the world, it is able to accommodate a wide range of tourism offers: Tokyo is there for everyone.

Among the most representative tourist attractions is undoubtedly the Imperial Palace. However, the city also has thousand-year-old sanctuaries and castles that have stood the test of time as if still in use. In the same way, it is recommended to visit the row of torii arches — ceremonial Shinto thresholds — lined up in the center of Kyoto.

Jigokudani Jigokudani Besides the hot mudflats that surround the area, Jigokudani is also known for the fiery rivers that flow through the forested areas. Even in the coldest season, the Oyunumagawa River keeps its warmth. Tourists can follow the course of the water for a fair distance and enter the clearings of the forest in the spring months.

In addition, it is possible to follow the ancient Japanese tradition of Ashiyu: a meditative practice of immersion in nature, in which the person places their feet in the warm waters of the flowing river. This experience is completely free as it preserves a sacred halo in the region’s oral tradition. The wooded trails that meander through the foothills of the mountains are accessible by ferry, which is a 20- to 30-minute ride across a lake.

IF YOU ARE SO KEEN TO KNOW WHICH ARE THE HAPPIEST COUNTRIES IN THE WORLD CHECKOUT MY BLOG . Sapporo While Sapporo is open to international tourism year-round, the city really comes into its own in winter. Due to the heavy snowfalls that cover the entire region — and much of the open, uninhabited countryside nearby — the Snow Festival is celebrated year after year.

For a whole week in February, professional sculptors from all over the world carry out their monumental projects on ice. Because of this, it’s common to see replica temples, manga characters, and other representations made entirely of snow. This tradition began in the 1950s but continues to this day with new technological adaptations that allow visitors deeper immersion.

Yokohama Yokohama is Tokyo’s most visited neighbouring city for international tourism. Some would say it’s a less tumultuous extension of the Japanese capital. Being on the coast, visitors spend the day at the beach. However, the destination is famous for the Ramen Museum and its amusement parks, as well as the business centers that made it grow.

It is easily accessible by train or bus as it is only 30 minutes from Tokyo Station. Many of the areas of tourist interest are within walking distance as the city as a whole is well connected and there are many public areas for pedestrians only. One of the most famous is the Sankeien Garden, designed by a wealthy silk merchant more than a century ago.
