One of the Main Attractions in Chofu City<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

My niece asked me where I wanted to go on Saturday during my stay in Chofu City, Tokyo, Japan, and I suggested Jindai Botanical Garden. The beautiful expansive park-like garden was the perfect spot for a picnic with my niece, her husband, and their three-year-old son. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

About Jindai Botanical Garden<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Website: <\/strong>https:\/\/www.tokyo-park.or.jp\/jindai\/about.html<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sitting right next to Jindaiji Temple, the Jindai Botanical Garden (\u795e\u4ee3\u690d\u7269\u516c\u5712, Jindai shokubutsu k\u014den) is at the edge of the Musashino plateau just above Jindaiji Temple in Ch\u014dfu, Tokyo, Japan. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

It extends across 425,433 square meters, and each of its thirty areas features varieties of one kind of plant. (More on Wikipedia: https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Jindai_Botanical_Garden<\/a>)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Reasonable Admission<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

As of January of 2024, admission costs \u00a5500 ($3.50) for adults, \u00a5200 ($1.40) for children, and \u00a5250 ($1.75) for seniors. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

My niece's husband drove us there in his van, and it took about 20 minutes from where I was staying. When they came to pick me up from my place, I was holding a plastic cup of cold drink in my hand. When my little grand nephew saw that, he reached out to pull down the cup holder in front of my seat so I could place my cup in it. I was amazed at how observant and considerate he is at his age.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Following our walk around the garden, we decided to have our picnic on the lawn near the giant pampas grass (Look at the size of it in the photo!). I loved it when my grandnephew generously shared his favorite food with me.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This visit to Jindai Botanical Garden was by far the most memorable part of my trip to Tokyo last October. <\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
