Forget that this is the city center

It is this garden that the person who visited this museum certainly extols.
There is a beautiful garden well cared for that it does not seem to be in Aoyama in Tokyo. The garden is dotted with four tea-ceremony rooms, which removed and rebuilt a thing from the Edo era to the Taisho era. The atmosphere, which is likely to forget that this is the city center, is created.
