Using the gardening techniques in the Edo period (1600-1860) as a good model, "Koko-en" creates historical atmosphere with magnificent view of Himeji Castle. |
This garden has becomes a playground for my son. He just loves to see the flowers around the garden. |
He enjoyed watching fishes swimming around and he really can stay there and looking at them as long as he can. Not kidding. |
His favourite animal is definitely a cat. We saw a cat at the garden and wondering if the cat is part of the garden or it is just a wild cat. |
