In the middle of Tokyo, the gardens around the Imperial Palace are a great place to find some peace and quiet. |
Just take a walk through a traditional Japanese garden and you will quickly realize why these are no ordinary gardens. With beautifully landscaped grounds, ponds of brightly coloured koi and statues scattered all around, there is a peaceful charm to a Japanese garden.

Koi are famous for being the longest living veterbrates, they can live to be over 200 years old. |
The garden around the Imperial Palace in Tokyo is a great place to start your exploration of a proper Japanese garden. With all the elements you would expect to find, this garden is a great place to read, picnic or simply stroll.

Think of your community. Is there a garden that you like to visit?
