Why go

Walk through the garden before deciding whether to spend time at the tea pavilion; the changing view across stones and planting is the main draw. Its scale suits a focused visit rather than a long park outing. Confirm opening and any booked tea activity.

What to look for

  • A mid-twentieth-century Japanese garden in Hirao.
  • Its tea house and stone-lined paths provide a small-scale retreat.

Useful to know

  • Allow about 50 minutes for the main visit.
  • Confirm current opening or access details with the venue before travelling.
