Lonely Planet review for Meiji-Jingū Gyōen

The grounds of Meiji-jingū shrine are also home to the Meiji-jingū Gyōen, a lovely strolling garden. It was once the property of two daimyō families, after it came under imperial control, Meiji himself designed the garden as a gift to the Empress Shōken. There are peaceful walks to the pond and teahouse and a good dose of privacy at weekdays, and spectacular irises and satsuki azaleas in season.
