The Ryuten rest house of the Okayama Koraku-en garden is a place fully integrated with the nature, with a simple and charming architecture. Opened on all sides and crossed by a stream of clear water, it was the place where the garden owners were coming to relax.

If you visit the Koraku-en garden, which is one of the “Three Great Gardens of Japan” (Nihon Sanmeien) be sure to make a brief stop here, it is well worth it.
