Hamarikyu Gardens

Spots

Hamarikyu Gardens is a beautifully preserved Edo-period landscape garden located along Tokyo Bay.

Once a feudal lord’s residence, the garden features a large tidal pond that changes with the sea’s tide, teahouses, and seasonal flowers. Visitors can enjoy a peaceful walk among traditional bridges, pine trees, and well-manicured landscapes.

The famous Nakajima-no-Ochaya teahouse offers matcha and Japanese sweets while overlooking the water. The garden provides a striking contrast to the surrounding skyscrapers, making it a perfect blend of history and modernity.

It is also a boarding point for the Sumida River cruise, offering a scenic route to Asakusa.
