Tokyo's Japanese Garden Restaurant, Chinzan-so, is situated in a historical and scenic part of the city. The area, also known as "Camellia Mountain", was the estate of Prince Aritomo Yamagata, a noted politician and state man during the Meiji Era(1868-1912). Naming his manor "Mansion on Camellia Mountain" it was the site of important govenrment meetings and conferences of which Emperor Meiji was a participant. Later, Baron Heitaro Fujita commissioned the construction of historic monuments and also developed the beautiful grounds.
The Chinzan-so Garden covering an area of upwards to 66,000 square meters is rich in historic remains and artifacts, all relics of the past that shouldn't be missed when visiting Chinzan-so. |
