Musashi Garden, Akashi - There are several gardens that are said to have been created by Miyamoto Musashi, a well-known swordsman in his day. Miyamoto Musashi was invited by Ogasawara, the lord of Akashi Castle to design the castle town and garden. At that time, he built a tea house called 'Kiyashiki' and a garden with a pond within the castle grounds. The garden was only restored in recent years within Akashi Castle Park, designated as a national historic site and one of Japan's top 100 city parks. This particular garden is known as Musashi Garden, though it is officially called Akashi Ruins Garden.
