Oyakuen Garden

Tonobo Natu via Google Maps

Dating back to the 18th century, Oyakuen was established when the local feudal lord encouraged the cultivation of healing botanicals for the community. Today, visitors can meander along peaceful gravel paths encircling a central pond while taking in meticulously manicured Japanese landscape design. The grounds still cultivate hundreds of medicinal plant varieties alongside historic rest houses and scenic seasonal flora. It provides a soothing, reflective escape deeply rooted in regional botanical and samurai history.
