Rikugien Gardens | Review by BobbyJenny

At Asahi Funakawa, I admired the famous “Spring Quartet,” and the floral scenery before me was breathtakingly beautiful. Walking along the Funakawa River, the cherry blossoms and tulips blooming on both sides complemented each other, while the snow-covered Tateyama Mountain Range could be seen in the distance, creating a colorful, richly layered spring scene.

Pink cherry blossoms, vibrant tulips, yellow canola flowers, and distant snowcapped mountains come together to form the unique “Spring Quartet.” When the breeze blows, the flowers sway gently, and the entire landscape is filled with the feeling of spring. It’s so beautiful from every angle that you won’t want to leave.

In Fukui, I took a walk along the Asuwa River, where cherry blossoms in full bloom on both banks formed a soft pink corridor of flowers. As the breeze blew, the petals swayed gently, beautifully complementing the murmuring river, and the whole scene was filled with the feeling of spring. Walking beneath the cherry trees, I looked up to see a canopy full of pink blossoms. Very romantic 🌹

Some of the works change as people move, with light and images constantly flowing, creating a different visual experience with every step. Rather than simply standing and admiring the art, it feels more like stepping into the works and experiencing them firsthand. The photos you can take are also very distinctive.

Visiting teamLab BioVortex this time was a very unique experience. Technology and art come together, making the entire experience highly immersive. If you enjoy photography, interactive art, or novel experiences, you can plan a visit when you’re in Tokyo!
