    Ehime Pref. Matsuyamashi Marunouchi 5
    A historic garden which sits at the base of Matsuyama Castle, one of the Japan's Top 100 Castles? in the center of Matsuyama. Built on the site of the residence of Gamo Tadatomo, the second lord of the Iyo-Matsuyama Domain, the omotegoten palace remains are now covered in flowers while the former noble private quarters are covered in ponds and lawn that show the former room layout. Also excavated on the site, whose size is nearly 1.6 hectares, is Japan's largest ancient water well. Recognized in 2013 as a Couple's Holy Land, nearly 500 pre-wedding photo shoots are staged here annually. There are also three pavilions on the grounds, the Katsuyama-tei, Juraku-tei, and Kanko-tei, that are used for cultural events including tea ceremonies and haiku poetry gatherings.

    Ehime Matsuyama-shi Misakemachi 2-6-7
    This park is in Misake-machi 2-chome, Matsuyama city. This historical park is centered around the registered historic landmark of Koushin-an, a retreat built by local poet Kurita Chodo in 1800. It's still used for poetry meets, tea ceremonies, cultural lectures and more, as well as seasonal events, like the Fujimatsuri held when the creeping wisteria is in bloom.

    俳人栗田樗堂の残した草庵とお庭が復元されていて無料で拝見できます。 今も講座や講演会が催され、句会や茶会も行われているそう。 宿泊していた大街道からは遠そうだなあと思っていましたが 道後温泉の帰りに乗った路面電車はJR松山駅行き。 「あれ、近くまで行くのでは？」と探しながら伺いました。 閑静な佇まいで一度スルーしてしまってましたが何とか10分程度で到着。 入口のパンフを眺めていたところ中からお声か...

    Ehime Pref. Uwajimashi Tenshakouen
    "This famous garden was built as a place of retreat by Date Munetada, the seventh lord of the Uwajima domain in the Iyo Province (present Ehime Prefecture). The park was completed in 1866 and its name comes from a poem composed by Date Masamune of Sendai, the father of Hidemune, the first lord of this domain. Wisteria trellises surround the Chisen Kaiyu-shiki garden, which is designed for strolling around a pond, and the white wisteria over the taiko-arched bridge over the pond are not to be missed. In accordance with the Date family crest of ""sparrow and bamboo"". there are a wide variety of bamboo types planted about the pond. In early June the Japanese irises come into season, and large number of tourists visit to see the vivid colors of the garden."

Stretched across the northwest corner of Shikoku island, Ehime is a nature-rich prefecture boasting beautiful coastlines and a rural center where mountains play host to 26 of the Buddhist temples that make up the Shikoku Pilgrimage. Matsuyama is home to an original post-feudal castle as well as Dogo Onsen, one of the country’s oldest natural hot springs. The northern city of Imabari marks the entrance to the Shimano Kaido, a road that crosses six spectacular bridges and several islands, forming a route between Shikoku and mainland Honshu.
