Mukōjima-Hyakkaen Garden 向島百花園

Mukōjima-Hyakkaen Garden (向島百花園, Mukōjima Hyakkaen) is an urban garden located in Sumida, Tokyo. The garden was created by a merchant, and is different from daimyō gardens, and therefore it is not a "traditional Japanese garden" in the proper sense of the term. It is the only surviving flower garden from the Edo period.
