This is a very lovely garden over a huge area. Allow a couple of hours to wander. There are late variety cherries here if you arrive later in April.

Am a huge fan of Japanese gardens so I had to see that. Loved it. Take a map, stroll, stop fo an ice cream - green tea :) and enjoy the beauty.

Absolutely Loved this place- wayyyy better than Yoyogi park. Shinjuku gyoen will give you a true local Tokyo feel on a weekend. People enjoying picnics, kids running about and plenty cherry blossom to spot. And yet you'll find our own quiet spot in these huge...More

The garden was beautifully presented and well maintained. We saw it while walking through the Shinjuku region and I can't remember how much it cost but it would have only been around 200Y each. Really good garden to walk around lazily and spend an hour...More

I really wanted to see this garden. Unfortunately, I decided an early morning visit would beat the heat and I didn't check beforehand. The garden doesn't open till 9am and closes at 4:30pm. I was there around 7:30am and there is a 200 yen admission....More

Really scenic lovely japanese gardens. Lots of areas for families to sit and have picnics. Food stalls also located there. Amazing whipped ice creams within the park. Entrance fee is like 400 yen i think. It is well worth seeing the japanese gardens are done...More

I recommend every one see this garden. The place goes for miles and there are a lot of different stunning feature to lay your eyes upon. Everything is just so green and well kept. It is well worth the ¥200 per person entry fee.
