Hikone Castle: A Historic Masterpiece on the Shores of Lake Biwa with a National Treasure Tenshū and Scenic Genkyu Garden
彦根市, Shiga
An early Edo period strolling landscape garden spreading northeast of the National Treasure Hikone Castle. Built with inspiration from the imperial palace of Emperor Xuanzong of Tang, it features ponds, islands, a tea house, and Hikone Castle's donjon as borrowed scenery. Designated as a National Scenic Beauty, this legacy of the Ii family continues to display the beauty of each passing season.
