Azalea Festival at the Rikugien Garden
There was an azalea festival held recently at the Rikugien Garden. I went there the first day so the flowers were not in full bloom yet.
Autumn at the Rikugien Garden
Rikugien Garden (六義園) is a park in Bunkyo City, Tokyo. The garden consists of a pond, trees, and a hill. It was completed in 1702 and is a typical example of gardens from the Edo period. In November and early December, it becomes a popular spot for enjoying the autumn foliage (koyo). After dark, the garden stays open late and the trees are lit with special nighttime illuminations.
Niboshi Ramen at Taizen in Komagome
Special Niboshi Ramen. There is also a limited version (10 servings a day) with more concentrated soup: I have also tried and it is even even more delicious.
