Ritsurin Koen, Takamatsu

Posted by Daryl Johnson (Farnham, United Kingdom) on 11 March 2008 in Plant & Nature and Portfolio.

Takamatsu city - last stop on our new year trip around Shikoku island. The famous garden Ritsurin Koen is the main sightseeing attraction here.

Although I'm now in England, this blog will still feature photos from Japan for the foreseeable future.

I apologise in advance if I'm tardy with commenting on your blogs or returning comments during the week... I will get to you though!

Japanalia from Yokohama, Japan

Well, well, well! Now you get me totally captivated! It is one of the places I MUST see!It is one of the most beautiful landscape gardens in Japan! Real famous! Even in winter it maintains an enchanting appearance! I like the scene you're offering us here and hope you'll post several shots from this garden!

@Japanalia: It was a beautiful park Gabriela. I only got a few shots here unfortunately, as this was the point in my new year holiday where I filled up all my memory cards! Luckily this was the final day of the trip...
