Visited the Ushiromiya mansion for the first time (Kyu-Furukawa Gardens)
I’d been putting off going there for so long, even though I live nearby. I always felt like I had to prepare properly first, put together a themed outfit and make the visit “worthy” somehow. But then I realized nothing is stopping me from going there more than once, so yesterday I spontaneously went while the roses are still blooming…
It’s a very lovely and surprisingly compact place. I imagined it being much bigger! And somehow you really don’t expect to see it there. The palm trees and some of the plants create this strange, almost unexplainable island-like atmosphere 🌿
