兼六園や後楽園、栗林公園とかの歴史ある庭園もいいけど、ここは歴史が浅い分、設備が新しくてキレイだし、假屋崎省吾とコラボするなど新しく分かりやすく華やかなものを取り入れているそのため、私みたいな感性があまり優れてない人でも、わーすごい！となりやすい二段になっている奥の滝は遠目に見ると一つの大きな滝に見え、感心させられたり真ん中の池は一定時間ごとに霧を発生させるという謎の演出があり、なんかよくわかんないけど、近くで見たくなってウロチョロしたり牡丹がメインで、一年中見られるという屋内庭園では、その薫りに圧倒されたりまあとにかく楽しめた島根のご当地サイダーも爽やかな味で、わりとオススメ

美しく手入れされた日本庭園は、四季折々の風情を楽しめる素晴らしい空間でした。特に、雲を連想させるような霧の演出が幻想的で、まるで別世界にいるような気分に。さらに、着色された光の演出とプロジェクションマッピングが庭園と融合し、神秘的な雰囲気を作り出していました。伝統と最新技術が見事に調和し、非日常の体験ができる場所です。日常を忘れて癒されたい方には、ぜひおすすめしたいスポットです！

平日18時ごろ訪問駐車場は近いところから埋まっていきますが、出入りもあるのですぐ停めれました。一年中牡丹が見れるのもウリだと思いますが、今は紅葉とイルミネーション🍁 また、喫茶室も暗闇の中営業されてて、今回は行けませんでしたが風景楽しみながら飲めそうです。キラキラもいいですが、湖に映った紅葉が素敵でしたー！
