Designated a National Place of Scenic Beauty, the Kyu-Furukawa Gardens are a rare example of a garden completed in the style of the early Taisho era (1912-1926). Roses bloom in a variety of beautiful colors and surround visitors with their lovely fragrance within the grounds. The location is famous for its roses, and the perfect time to visit is in May, when the Kyu-Furukawa Gardens host a spring rose festival. Huge crowds of visitors attend this festival each year.
Along with the stately Western-style house designed by Josiah Conder during the Taisho era, the Western-style garden features approximately 200 rosebushes of 100 different varieties, showing a magnificent harmony with the mansion. Rose varieties include the Maria Callas, and also the Royal Princess, which is dedicated to Japan's Princess Aiko.
