What other travelers are saying about Happo-en Garden
I had the entire garden to myself on a Friday morning and it was magical! Only one sakura tree was in bloom but that was enough to make me happy 🌸 The entire garden was so lush and well maintained. Everywhere you looked was picture perfect! The trickling waterfalls were so soothing. There were giant koi, seating areas and lots of stunning bonsai! 💚 I could have sat and enjoyed the tranquility all day!
Happo-en Garden is located in the Shirokanedai neighborhood in Tokyo. It's easily accessible from the JR Meguro Station and JR Shirokanedai Station.
The garden dates back to the Edo period (1603–1867). It was built in the early 17th century on the gentle hills of old Edo, with a natural stream running through it. The garden has since been maintained and preserved, boasting all the beauty of more famous Tokyo historical buildings and gardens.
The garden offers unique beauty in every season. However, spring, with its blossoming cherry and plum trees, is particularly spectacular. Autumn also provides a stunning display when the leaves of the maple trees turn vibrant shades of red and orange.
Yes, Happo-en Garden houses a restaurant that serves traditional Japanese cuisine. It also has a tea house where visitors can enjoy a traditional tea ceremony.
This wedding venue is a wonderful space that combines the best of both Japanese and Western styles. It retains a traditional Japanese atmosphere, while also featuring a beautiful church that complements it. My friend's wedding was truly wonderful, and the service from the staff was of an extremely high quality, making it a lifelong memory for both the organizers and the guests. I would like to express my sincere gratitude to the architecture and staff for creating such a wonderful space.
A beautiful event hall in the middle of Tokyo. The garden is well designed and displays many of the iconic Japanese inspiration structures. There is a lake, waterfall, cute little cottages and, of course, a tea house. It is definitely worth a wonderful walk thru the place and have a wonderful meal at the dining hall. Overall, a very nice event center.
