About
Rikugien is one of Tokyo's most beautiful traditional gardens, built in 1702. Famous for its massive weeping cherry tree illuminated at night in spring, and spectacular autumn foliage illumination in November.
Crowd Avoidance
Start early morning for the best experience and fewer people. Autumn foliage and cherry blossom seasons are the most crowded periods.
