Kagoshima's Sengan-en Garden 🌺

This beautiful garden, established in 1658, was one of the residences of the Shimazu clan. 🎢🍃 It is renowned for its unique "borrowed scenery" technique and rich historical background. 🌿 🍃The courtyard🏡was designed with inspiration from the Afang Palace, while the residence itself is a fusion of Japanese, Chinese, and Western architectural styles. At the heart of the villa lies an elegant Japanese courtyard, with a pond surrounded by plants in shades of red and green, complemented by stone lanterns. 🎢 Every step along the colonnade or a seat on the carpet allows you to feel the beauty of the changing seasons within the garden. 🌸 In 2015, Sengan-en was inscribed as part of the "Meiji Industrial Revolution Heritage" on the UNESCO World Heritage List. 🌟 🎢🍃 #Kagoshima 🌇
