Hands down the most beautiful Japanese Garden in Japan. Formerly the estate of the famed film actor Okochi Denjiro (1898-1962), this sublime villa and surrounding gardens are now open to the public. Most tourists won't pay the 1000 yen entry fee, so as a result it has kept it's peaceful zen ambience. The main house here is one of the finest examples of traditional Japanese residential architecture anywhere and the teahouse is a wabi-sabi gem. But it’s the gardens here that really boggle the mind. Your ticket includes a cup of matcha tea. Unmissable!
