Happo-en, meaning ‘beautiful from every angle’ in Japanese, is an ornamental garden and teahouse located in the Shirokanedai area of Tokyo. The garden features winding paths that meander through a landscape adorned with centuries-old cherry and maple trees, creating a serene and picturesque setting. At the heart of the garden, tranquil ponds invite visitors to pause and reflect. One of the most notable highlights is the garden’s oldest tree, a 500-year-old Japanese bonsai, which stands as a testament to the enduring beauty and history of this tranquil oasis.
