Yatsuhashi Zig Zag Bridge and Iris garden.

---

In early June, beautiful white and purple flowers bloom here giving a special atmosphere to the rainy season. Japanese irises are to be found next to Yatsuhashi Bridge, which spans the Kyokusui (Meandering Stream), making for an artistic visual feast reminiscent of the Azumakudari (east-going) chapter in the Tale of Ise.
