The Elegance of Hyotan Pond in Kenrokuen, Kanazawa

Kenrokuen, the most iconic garden in Kanazawa, captivates visitors with the refined charm of Hyotan Pond as they step into its tranquil corner. The pond, shaped like a gourd, reflects the silhouettes of pine trees and stone bridges. It is the oldest pond in the garden, dating back to the early 17th century, marking the beginning of Kenrokuen's creation. Standing by the pond, it feels as though time gently rewinds. The small island in the center and the layered artificial hills create a harmonious scene, while the nine-tiered pagoda and winding stone bridges along the shore add an artistic touch of Eastern aesthetics. When a gentle breeze ripples across the water, the surface transforms into a picturesque painting, with every moment worthy of capturing as poetic scenery. 📍 Location: Hyotan Pond, Kenrokuen, Kanazawa City, Ishikawa Prefecture
