Ritsurin Garden is a superb cultural asset that conveys the characteristics of the daimyo strolling gardens that were typically seen in the 17th and 18th century. A daimyo strolling garden is a type of traditional Japanese garden in which ponds and hills are expertly constructed over a vast tract of land, and you can enjoy the garden's space as you leisurely walk around inside.
This garden is full of beautiful detail. The trees are manicured immaculately and the landscaping of each view is exquisite. Even though we visited in early November and the autumn colours weren't yet fully showing the garden still looked fantastic.

Very helpful, informative, friendly and available guide/receptionist in English (and other languages). We wish we could attend a performance there someday in April. Very worth the visit.

This fiberglass red pumpkin welcomed us to Naoshima, the art island, as soon as our ferry from Uno entered Miyanoura Port. Placed at the water's edge, the 13-feet-high work by Japanese artist Yayaoi Kusama features her trademark polka dots. Big and black, some are actually holes that visitors can peer through from inside for a photo. Created in 2006, the interactive art piece has openings to enter and to exit and plenty of room in the empty interior. Children and adults seemed to be having much fun investigating the sculpture (touching permitted). I thought the scenes of the island when looking out provided good photo ops in addition to what are available from the exterior. Though the popular piece beckons immediately when leaving the ferry, those in a time crunch for catching a bus may want to wait to visit until their return. Akakabocha is one of two pumpkin sculptures by Kusama on the island. The other, Yellow Pumpkin, stands on an old wharf that extends from a sandy beach and faces the Benesse Hotel. That pumpkin is not an interactive creation.

One of my goals while living in Japan is to see all the original castles, so this last weekend I visited Marugame Castle. This one is interesting as it is built on top of a steep hill, most others I've been to so far have been on flat ground. Because of this it reminded me a bit of castles in Europe. The walk to the actual castle is pretty steep, but you get gorgeous 360 views from the top. I recommend paying the 200 Yen to visit the inside. The inside is pretty small but it is interesting to see what it looks like plus entrances here are so cheap. The whole grounds of the castle to include the park and moat are just beautiful.
