    Wakayama Wakayama-shi Ichibancho 3
    This garden is located on the grounds of Wakayama Castle Park. A traditional strolling garden, it is designed to make maximum use of its scenic location on a slope at the base of Mt. Torafusu and has a pond and waterfall supplied by a spring. The garden is considered one of the finest of the feudal lord gardens dating to the early Edo period. Also known as the Momijidani Teien (garden of the valley of Autumn foliage), as this nickname implies, the garden experiences stunning fall foliage, and in most years visitors can take in the sight of vivid gold and crimson leaves reflecting off the surface of the garden's pond from late November to early December. Points of interest include the Engyokaku pavilion standing on the bank of the pond; and the Ofunaishi, a boat-shaped stone in the pond's center. Visitors can also stop by the Koshoan tearoom to enjoy a cup of matcha green tea while taking in a view of the garden.

Wakayama prefecture unites pilgrims, food lovers, and culture buffs in a tranquil corner of Japan at the base of the Kii Peninsula. The setting for many a Kumano Kodo pilgrimage trail, Wakayama invites those in search of spirituality from one side of the prefecture to the other, from the 100-plus Buddhist temples of the sacred Mount Koya in the west to the inspiring temples of the Kumano Sanzan set among breathtaking nature in the east. Once the grueling hike is complete, make a beeline for Wakayama city to savor some of the country’s most delicious ramen noodles.
