Stroll through a rock garden that preserves Satsuma's samurai residence culture
About this spot
A garden that conveys the history of Miyanoshiro, where samurai residences were once placed under the Satsuma Clan's external castle system. Centered around a meticulously maintained rock garden and pond, the landscape is peaceful with beautiful seasonal greenery. This is a place where samurai residence culture still lives, offering families a chance to experience quiet moments at their own pace. During summer when the green is brilliant, even a walk in the shade feels refreshingly cool.
