Quiet Beautiful Places in Bunkyo ward, Central Tokyo

I visited “Sekiguchi Basyo An”, a hermitage where the Haiku poet “Basyo” lived in the early Edo period, working as a civil engineer for the water system.

Also “Shin Edogawa Park” once owned by a feudal load,Hosokawa from current Kumamoto prefecture. It is a stroll type garden with a pond.

It’s great fun to stroll around, especially looking back over the past and the people.
