A vast pond-strolling Japanese garden located on Daikonshima Island in Nakaumi, Matsue City. It is world-famous as a production area for "Peonies" (Botan), and you can enjoy beautiful large peonies all year round. Especially in early summer, the event where tens of thousands of peony flowers cover the entire surface of the garden's pond boasts an unbelievable beauty of color. It shows the peak of landscape gardening beauty in every season, such as autumn leaves and winter illuminations. Reflecting Matsue's tea culture, you can spend a luxurious time tasting authentic matcha or ginseng tea while viewing the garden. It is the ultimate healing spot where Japanese "traditional aesthetic sense" is condensed.
