The garden of the Chofu clan's chief retainer
Chofu Garden is the site of the residence of Nishiyuki Naga, who was the chief retainer of the Chofu Mori clan. Set against a small hill, the approximately 31,000 square meter area features a pond at its center, along with a study, tea house, and gazebo, preserving the tranquil atmosphere of the past. Around 30 Hirado azaleas planted near the entrance of the garden bloom with pink and white flowers. About 20 Mitsuba azaleas within the garden also add a touch of spring to the serene landscape.
