Peaceful and Romantic Kyoto Garden

There’s plenty to do at Holland Park. The northern half of the park consists of semi-wild woodland with a central section of formal gardens, while the southernmost section is primarily used for sports. The central area attracts most visitors, having a children’s playground, an adventure playground, two Japanese gardens and a cafe.

The Kyoto Japanese Garden boasts Japanese maple trees, tiered waterfalls and a pond with koi carp, while nearby Fukushima Japanese Garden is a quiet space for contemplation, built to remember those affected by the 2011 Fukushima disaster

Best of all, a romantic walk costs nothing- just time spent together, making memories
