My hydrangea quest. Day 3

If anything, I admire the love of the Japanese for jazz. I'm surprised it's considered ok for small children, though. I also don't think I would come here all the way to see the flowers only, if not for the jazz festival. If not for the jazz festival where pretty boys play jazz. Boys, I think I've remembered your names...

But the flowers were very nice, just as expected. And the merry-go-round was unexpectedly nice... I think I'd die if I saw it when I was 10.

My curious April. Day 8, part 1

14.18, Hitsujiyama park
It's a pity not all of the flowerbeds are in full bloom, but at least I know now that there are 'autumn roses' and 'Daniel's cushions'

My Japanese tour 2016. Day 9, part 1

12.30, Korakuen station

It was my dream to go to a place I don't know at all. So we took the first book that came before our eyes in the room - it was the 'Shounen Jump' that U-chan bought the other day, searched for a random letter and random number, and what we got in the result was MA21, subway Marunouchi line 21st station, Korakuen.

A wonderful thing - some sakura still blooming in the end of April.

13.50, Korakuen garden

The ticket is only 300 yen, but what pleasure it is to behold such beauty. Even though we'll see wisteria tomorrow, it's great to have a glimpse of it here. Peonies are no less beautiful. And who thought such things as 'full moon bridge' would fascinate me. Some things only impress you when you actually see them. I guess there are no better landscape and interior designers than Japanese, if you ask me who is the best master of creating spaces where every new step brings new angles of viewing ordinary things.
