Enjoy the Edo's floral iris scenery at Horikiri-Shobuen.
Horikiri-shobuen, located in Katsushika-ku, Tokyo, is a spot known as one of the best places in Tokyo with a long history of iris blossoms. In early summer, the garden is filled with purple, white, and light purple irises, creating a beautiful scene that evokes a tranquil Japanese atmosphere.
Key points for photography
The key to photographing the flowers is to balance the close-up of the irises with the overall atmosphere of the park. Since many areas are very close to the flowers, making a single flower the main subject and blurring the background will create an elegant and serene photo.
