MK Guide Recommends
Shinjuku Gyoen National Garden, one of Tokyo’s most renowned green spaces, provides a peaceful escape just steps from the hustle and bustle of Shinjuku. Originally the estate of a feudal lord and later an imperial garden, it opened to the public after World War II and is now managed as a national garden. The grounds cover over 58 hectares, blending traditional Japanese landscaping with English-style lawns and French formal gardens. Known for its spring cherry blossoms and autumn leaves, Shinjuku Gyoen draws visitors year-round who come to walk, picnic, and find peace in nature. Its central location, historical origins, and seasonal beauty make it one of Tokyo’s most cherished cultural sites.
