The oldest fountain is made by water pressure from elevation difference of the pond as own source. And it is made in the Edo period, so I'm surprised at the skill.

Korakuen Garden

6 Reviews

Koraku-en is one of the three best Japanese garden and has won three stars in Michelin Green Guide Japan. From around the ponds, small hill and everywhere you can see the beautiful garden scene that can be said to 'simple is best'.◎Entrance fee: adult 400yen It's also good to look Okayama Castle just behind the garden together.
