春花園Bonsai美術館 - Shunka-en is the Bonsai garden and museum set up by Bonsai master Kunio Kobayashi (four times winner of the Prime Ministers Award, the most prestigious prize to be won in Japan).
The garden is an absolute highlight and should not be missed. When entering the garden the first thing you are likely to note is the stunning 1000-year-old pine tree in front of the house, the masterpiece of Mr. Kobayashi’s collection.
Trees are rotated and sold of course, but the courtyard always features an eye-catching tree. Inside the house, several tokonomas are set up and a large collection of books and antique Chinese pots and tables are displayed.
To get to the Shunkaen Bonsai museum, get on the JR So-bu line from downtown Tokyo and get off at Koiwa station. At Koiwa, take the south exit, and across the parking take bus 76; get off at Keiyouguchi bus stop (the ride should take about 15 minutes). From the bus stop, it’s a five-minute walk west (to the right from the bus’ driving direction), parallel to the main Keiyo road.
