点评:It is said that this is top 3 garden in the entire of Japan, or so we were told multiple times but I struggle to find this to be the case as during our 12 day trip between Tokyo->Kanazawa->Takayama->Kyoto we had see plenty of beautiful places, ones that I recognized and found much prettier than this garden.
However, to be fair - I think it's all about the time of the year, some of these places lose their charm or enhance their appearance based on the state of their vegetation - flowers... snow... etc.
The spot where people were lining up on a little bridge just to get a picture with the background was definitely the biggest overhyped moment I have witnessed in person during this trip, especially after all the internet hype on youtube and instagram about it... I just didn't see it...
It's more of a romantic peaceful stroll in the greenery type of place for me than "a must see" cultural spot - definitely one the places I would have skipped if I had a chance to redo the trip/itinerary
翻译:据说这是全日本排名前三的花园,至少我们之前听过很多次,但我很难相信这是真的。在我们12天的东京->金泽->高山->京都之旅中,我们见过很多美丽的地方,有些地方我都认识,而且觉得比这个花园漂亮得多。
不过,平心而论,我觉得这跟季节有关,有些地方会因为植被的状况而失去魅力,或者增强魅力——比如花开……雪落……等等。
人们在小桥上排队只为拍一张背景照的场景,绝对是我这次旅行中亲眼目睹的最被夸大的时刻,尤其是在YouTube和Instagram上被大肆宣传之后……我就是没看到……
对我来说,与其说这是一个“必看”的文化景点,不如说这是一个在绿意盎然中漫步的浪漫而宁静的地方——如果我有机会重新安排行程,我肯定会错过这里。
