Garden at Samurai House

by Tomoe

Maybe I've been spoilt by the many wonderful Japanese gardens I've seen, but I found this one to be a rip-off. It was 500 yen to get in (Kenroku-en is only 300), taking green tea and a sweet was 700 yen (Hama Rikyu in Tokyo only charges 400). The staff were dull and the gardens were poorly maintained. Maybe I caught them on a bad day, but I wuldn't recommend spending the time walking here, or spending the money to try and enjoy its limited appeal

The garden at the Nomura Family Samurai house is much prettier, the staff friendly and it's easier to get to (no steep hill).
