Shoseien Garden (trifoliate garden)
From March 31 (Mon.) to April 5 (Sat.), 2025, "Omotenashi no Boat Trip Special Tour" will be held at Shoseien (枳殻邸), the enclave grounds of Higashi Honganji Temple.
The Shoseien Garden is said to have welcomed many distinguished guests in the past and provided hospitality by boat. This tour is a special program that allows visitors to experience a part of the hospitality that was practiced in the Edo period (1603-1868), with a leisurely ride around the park's pond in a Japanese-style boat built based on historical documents, and enjoy matcha green tea and original sweets from Higashi Honganji Temple in Rinchi-tei, which is usually closed to the public. Depending on the schedule, it may also be possible to switch the matcha reception to a porridge meal and enjoy it in the Roan, a two-story tea house.
The garden is planted with nearly 50 cherry trees of several varieties including Someiyoshino, so you can enjoy cherry blossoms for a long period of time, including early blooming ones. Enjoy the spring in Kyoto with special hospitality in this historic garden.
