KōRAKU-EN





 
KORAKU-EN GARDEN, one of the Three Great Gardens of Japan. Originally built in 1700, much of it was bombed during WWII. It was recreated in 1952 with the help of drawings and paintings from the Edo period of the original garden. It pretty much looks exactly the same as it did in 1700 apart from a few modernisations. pretty cool!
