About Suun Sanso
- During the autumn foliage season, we highly recommend visiting to see the garden illuminated under a mystical light.
- At the Kimura Tea Ceremony Museum, you can enjoy a slow, peaceful moment while admiring precious historical tea utensils.
- The spring season is also a wonderful time to visit to see the vibrant colors of the azaleas and fresh greenery.
- Taking a photo with the arched bridge and pond in the background is a perfect way to capture the quintessential beauty of a Japanese garden.
