  • Sengan-en Garden is a  daimyo strolling garden in Kagoshima. It's most striking feature is its use of the volcano at Sakurajima beyond Kagoshima Bay as background scenery. The garden itself is made up of small ponds, streams, rockeries and sculpted terrain. The garden was created in 1658 by the powerful feudal Shimazu Clan who ruled Satsuma Kagoshima for 700 years and continued to be influential into the modern era as some of the earliest adopters of Western technology.  Sengan-en piggybacks on the  UNESCO status of the adjacent Shoko Shusiekan and the Ijinkan which are part of the Meiji Japan Industrial agglomeration of UNESCO World Heritage sites.

  • Senganen Garden, also known as Isoteien is a Japanese style landscape garden along the coast of Kagoshima. One of the garden's most striking feature is its use of Sakurajima and Kagoshima Bay as borrowed scenery. The garden includes small ponds, streams, shrines and a bamboo grove. Senganen was constructed in 1658 by the wealthy Shimazu Clan, one of the most powerful feudal clans during the Edo Period.  The Shimazu ruled Kagoshima for almost 700 years and continued to be influential into the modern era as earlyadopters of Western science and technology.  At the center of the garden stands the Iso Residence. The residence was originally built in 1658 along with the rest of the garden, but the current building mostly dates back to a reconstruction in the mid 1880s.
