Directions

A Meiji-era stroll garden famous for its extraordinary collection of large stepping stones sourced from across Japan, arranged around a central pond. Originally the private garden of the Iwasaki family (founders of Mitsubishi), it retains an intimate, unhurried atmosphere that feels genuinely off the tourist trail. The neighborhood is now Tokyo's specialty coffee hub, so pairing a garden visit with a stop at nearby Blue Bottle or Allpress is a perfect half-day. Crowds are light even on weekends.
