On a same day when I visited English Garden ←link last month, we also stopped by "Chofu-garden 長府庭園" in Shimonoseki-city.
I didn't want to miss posting Tex's meme. I'm happy if my pictures from this garden can brings you a bit of Japanese atmosphere. Haha, visiting two places and could have enjoyed both western and eastern garden in one day;-)
