Himeji Castle and KOKO-EN garden are located in Hyogo Prefecture Japan. These two attractions are close to each other, allowing visitors to experience the beauty of historical landmarks and enjoy the tranquility of the Japanese Garden.
We recommend that you visit Himeji Castle first. It is one of the most famous castles in Japan and a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The castle was designed and built for defense and has retained much of its historical significance. A tour of the castle will transport you back to the samurai era, allowing you to experience unique architecture and history.
After visiting Himeji Castle, you can walk to the KOKO-EN garden, which is southwest of the castle. This garden is a traditional Japanese-style garden divided into nine zones, each filled with natural beauty, reflective of the gardening style. In autumn, the garden’s vibrant red and orange foliage creates an unforgettable experience.
😊If you are traveling to the Kansai region this fall, don’t miss out. In addition, during the cherry blossom season, this place is also very beautiful. Don't forget to come and see the beauty of Himeji Castle and enjoy the natural scenery in KOKO-EN garden.
