Kenseishi Ryokuchi Park

Bunshokan is a public cultural facility that uses the grounds of the former Yamagata Prefectural Government Building built in the Taisho era. It is a nationally designated important cultural property. There is a strolling Japanese garden in the front officially known as the Prefectural Government History Green Area. After the Yamagata Prefectural Office moved to a new building preservation and restoration work of the old prefectural office was carried out. At that time the area around the building was developed as a green park, and the Japanese-style garden that can be seen now was created. It is now officially known as Kenseishi Ryokuchi Park.
