Located 700 meters from the train station, this vast 4-hectare garden takes up residence east of the castle and on the banks of the Kyobashi-gawa. It was created in 1620 by Ueda Sōko, a Japanese tea ceremony master. It was then part of the residence of Nagaarika Asano. It was destroyed in 1945, then rebuilt in 1951. You can still contemplate its lake, islets and Chinese-style bridge, which refers to its Chinese model of Hangzhou, the former capital of the Song. You will be able to see there in particular a beautiful tea pavilion (Seifu).

C'est un beau parc, relativement peu fréquenté. Il fait partie de la catégorie des jardins pour la promenade et est très agréable. Le pont qui en fait la particularité est à mon sens un peu étrange, mais c'est aussi son intérêt.

Parc Shukkeien : terminé en 1620 pour le seigneur samouraï ASANO Iwamatsu (1586-1632), ce parc d'Hiroshima fut ouvert au public en 1940. Sa disposition imite celle du jardin Xi Hu de la ville chinoise de Hangzhou. « Shukkei » signifie littéralement « vue serrée » : un habile jeu de perspectives permettant de représenter en miniature de grands panoramas naturels.
Parc très agréable pour se détendre et profiter du calme
