Shin Edogawa Park

Shin Edogawa Park used to be feudal load Hosokawa family's mansion.
This garden is very hilly and there's a pond at the bottom.
You may feel like you are in a deep mountain.

There's a gate connecting to Eisei Bunko Museum at the highest point of the garden.
It's a kind of secret route to go to the museum.
Eisei Bunko Museum exhibits treasures of Hosokawa family.

Paths are well maintained even though they are on the steep slope.
It's amazing to keep this garden neat and clean with no admission fee.
This garden is owned and maintained by City of Bunkyo.

Edgawa Park is another park on a river side of Kanda river near here.
It's a long park with a path along Kanda river.
Shin Edogawa Park means "New" Edogawa park.

But this place is more like a traditional Japanese garden rather than a park.
So I'd like to propose to change it to "Edogawa Garden".
