Japanese garden in Kadriorg park. Tallinn, Estonia

The exquisite Japanese Garden is located between Pirita Promenade and Kadriorg Palace. It was created in 2011 by the Japanese landscape designer Masao Sone.
⠀
This is one of the few Japanese gardens built upon the approval of the Japanese people in Europe.
⠀
It occupies a fairly large area about six hectares. Rocks, water and plants are important elements of the Japanese Garden. The trees and bushes have been specially selected for the Estonian climate. Cherries, rhododendrons and irises bloom here in spring, and the garden gets embraced with diverse colors in autumn. Masao Sone tried to decompose the stones, following the silhouette of the roofs of Old Tallinn: the higher stones resemble church spiers, the lower ones remind of tiled roofs.
⠀
In the Japanese Garden, a person gets face to face with nature. It is not allowed to make noise here, play any sports, ride bicycles or walk animals.
⠀
You can visit it free of charge at any time. The garden is generally closed during winter.
