Yokokan Garden

Places to visit

Yokokan Garden is one of my favorite places and a must-see in Fukui city. This place was owned for centuries by the powerful Matusdaira clan.  According to the interesting and funny attendant there, this place used to be a mansion for Mtsudaira clan.  He also explained that this is much better than other big and famous gardens in Japan.  Because Yokokan is not as big as any other famous ones in Japan, we get to sit back and relax instead of being rushed by other visitors and their attendants.  So this is why I like Yokokan Garden.
