Ryuge-ji Kanfuen Garden - Ryugeji was founded in the early Edo period in 1670 by Priest Nisshin, a nephew of Oman who was a concubine of Tokugawa Ieyasu. The temple and its garden originally had a spectacular view of Mt. Fuji. The large cycad and cactus in the garden has been listed as a national natural treasure. The Kanfuen garden was designed in the Shumisan style in which you can imagine that the room of the temple is Mt. Fuji, the small mountain is Mt. Udo and the pond is Suruga Bay.
