Gyokusenkan Atochi Park
The Japanese garden is beautiful in every season: cherry blossoms in spring, water lilies in summer, and autumn leaves in fall.
This Japanese garden was restored and redeveloped as a park in 2001 on the site of the former hot spring ryokan “Gyokusenkan” from 1904 to 1979. The garden was originally the garden of a ryotei ryokan called “Yamahato no Yu-tei,” which was renamed “Gyokusenkan” because the hot spring water gushing out with methane gas looked like a ball. At the center of the garden is Shinji Pond, which is shaped like the character for “heart,” and is home to 2,000 pink and white water lilies! It is a beautiful place to relax. Visitors can enjoy the beauty and colors of each season: cherry blossoms in spring, fresh greenery in summer, and autumn leaves in fall. It has also been selected as one of the 10 Iwamizawa treasures selected by citizens through the “Iwamizawa Treasures Discovery and Dissemination Project.
