Adachi Museum of Art

I keep thinking I have discovered japan's most beautiful gardens, Katsura being the most recent, only to be surprised by even more beautiful locations. The Japanese Gardens that now have to be exceeded are those at the Adachi Museum of Art near Yasugi in Shimane. I found them just stunning and set within the context of an Art gallery made them even more beautiful somehow. The art on display was pretty spectacular in and of itself but the gardens all around and the way they are incorporated into the gallery display spaces and the overall Museum is amazing.

But be a judge for yourself from my photos below. They don't really do them justice but I think you will see the beauty. I would love to return here in all 4 seasons to see how the gardens change.Read more
