Nitobe Memorial Garden review Rate it
A five-minute stroll from the Museum of Anthropology brings you to the smaller Nitobe Memorial Garden. An exquisite Japanese Garden named for scholar-statesman Dr Inazo Nitobe, this tranquil haven is an authentic expression of Japanese garden artistry and philosophy. Cherry trees bloom in spring, irises in summer (by the arched wooden bridge); in autumn, leaves create a spectacular effect. The site includes a traditional teahouse, with occasional openings for a formal tea ceremony.
