Top 6 Gardens in Shinagawa / Gotanda, Kanto
Tradition collides with pop culture in Tokyo, where you can reverently wander ancient temples before rocking out at a karaoke bar. Wake up before the sun to catch the lively fish auction at the Tsukiji Market, then refresh with a walk beneath the cherry blossom trees that line the Sumida River. Spend some time in the beautiful East Gardens of the Imperial Palace, then brush up on your Japanese history at the Edo-Tokyo Museum. Don’t forget to eat as much sushi, udon noodles, and wagashi (Japanese sweets) as your belly can handle.

This is a great garden which is part of a hotel property and has all the traditional Japanese Garden features we were expecting from the little temple, a chapel where several couples were getting married, nice walkways, koi fish, sitting areas, a mini bamboo forest and lots of beautiful flowers and trees including bonsai trees. We would definitely recommend stopping to see this. It is near several other attractions if you are just wondering around so be on the lookout for it while walking around and using the pocket Wi-Fi that is highly recommended by all to help get around.

It is a nobel that this land has not been developed and has been left to nature. The paths were dirt and gave me a feeling of being one with nature. It was not a manicured park. But, it was clearly tended to. It is worth the time to check out the small entrance museum. It will educate you and what is found and studied in the park. I particularly liked the interactive bird exhibit which showed and played the call of the birds found in the Institute. However, all of the museum is japanese only, including the books for sale. While walking I spotted a black kite soaring above the entrance to the trails and heard it's noisy call later when it landed in one of the old tall pines. Great park for birding.

a peaceful place isolated from the hustle and bustle of Shinagawa station. 10 minutes walk from the station west exit.
