Step back into the Edo period with a visit to Nakatsu Banshoen, a picturesque Daimyo garden established in 1688 along the Seto Inland Sea. Winding paths lead visitors across vermilion bridges and past meticulously sculpted black pines surrounding a grand central pond. The estate also features historic tea houses, an art museum, and serene water views that invite quiet contemplation. It remains one of Shikoku’s most rewarding hidden gems for lovers of classic Japanese landscaping and samurai-era heritage.
