A corner of the Sankeien Garden in Yokohama in January. It is the most beautiful Japanese garden in the city, it celebrated its centennial last year. It is not only a jewel of Japanese garden landscaping, but it contains also a priceless collection of old Japanese houses, from lordly manors to temple halls and a variety of teahouses. These structures are set among trees and ponds and you have the impression they have been there since times immemorial.It is a four seasons garden, so it is interesting to visit it at any time of the year.
