무코지마 백화원

동경의 작고 온화한 매화원

봄의 주된 관광 행사라고 하면 벚꽃놀이 이지만, 거기에 앞서가는 매화는 2월 하순부터 3월 초순에 만개 합니다. 개인적으로는 연분홍빛 벚꽃보다, 짙은 색의 매화꽃들을 나는 좋아 합니다. 그 외에도 카메이도텐진 (亀戸天神) 처럼 대도시 도쿄에서 아름다운 매화꽃을 볼 수 있는 장소가 있지만, 올해는 60~70그루의 매화만 피는, 작고 조용하며 도쿄 스카이 트리에 가까운 무코지마 백화원 (向島百花園)을 방문해 보았 습니다.

Mukojima Hyakka-en is kind of a well hidden place in Tokyo's Sumida ward, and crowds here are relatively thin which actually enhances the flower viewing (hanami) experience.

The garden is said to be the only surviving flower garden from the Edo Period. An entrance fee of 150 yen is charged.

Apart from plum trees there are a lot of other flowers which bloom across all four seasons. One more view of the blossoms, which is partly still in the buds stage, just set to bloom very soon. The blossoms can be enjoyed until around the 10th of March every year.

There is a Japanese style tatami room inside the park, which can be reserved by paying a special entrance fee of 3,700 yen. From the outside I could see some people in the room, wearing kimono and attending a tea ceremony, a very traditional Japanese experience.

Walking towards the garden through the quiet lanes just one kilometer away from Asakusa, the Ume-Matsuri (Plum Festival) banners in Japanese were quite prominently displayed.

Tokyo Skytree in the backdrop from Mukojima Hyakka-en. I guess I should come back for a twilight scene on a clear blue sky day.
