Also known as the Tokiwa garden, this land was originally a plum orchard belonging to Tokugawa Nariakira. Converted into public property in 1840 and renamed Kairakuen, this park is now recognized as one of the top three gardens in Japan.
We took a train to Mito station and walked along Senba lakeside to Kairakuen Park. You could also take a bus there if you choose not to walk. It was a pleasant walk in spring. Although cherry blossoms were not at the peak, plum blossoms were in full bloom and the park was a fairyland of colours. It was enjoyable to walk around the park and very doable. We took a bus back to Mito station after our visit.
