The Former Yasuda Garden is said to have been created during the Genroku era and was once a traditional stroll-style garden centered around a pond fed by water from the Sumida River.
Today, the garden artificially recreates the movement of tidal water.
The garden is surrounded by the Ryogoku Kokugikan, the Japanese Sword Museum, the Edo-Tokyo Museum, and the Sumida Hokusai Museum.
Within the garden, visitors can see a stone bridge and komadome stones, enjoying the distinctive scenery and atmosphere that only a traditional Japanese garden can offer.
This is a highly recommended spot for anyone wishing to spend some quiet and relaxing time away from the bustle of the city.
