*Continuing my Takamatsu trip post as I had time to transfer the pictures from my phone this weekend*
On our second last day, we decided that we would take a long walk to Ritsurin Garden (栗林公園) after breakfast.
The sidewalks are wide and easy to walk.
This is a famous garden in Takamatsu that is famous for matsu or pine trees.
This place seems to be popular with the locals as well.
Look at how beautiful this view is.
There are also many beautiful koi fishes in the pond.
This garden is also famous for it's tea house as you can see from this beautiful view.
The overall landscaping of this garden is just really nice.
Also, their pine trees has such amazing characteristics.
I imagine that this garden is popular for pre-wedding pictures.
There are stalls where you an buy fish feed to feed the fishes. I cannot resist because there are so many koi fishes and they are all so pretty.
And hungry!
I stopped at several different spots to feed them.
The moment I start feeding at one spot, all the fishes start coming over.
After that, we took the bus to the port area and walked to this restaurant called Cafe Style Hazuki (カフェスタイル ハヅキ) for lunch.
This is a pretty stylish cafe near the port area. There are many flowers in the cafe and the space is spacious.
J had their curry lunch which came with a salad (1,000 JPY)
Meanwhile, I ordered the Kaiseki lunch (1,250 JPY). It came with this soup with an ebi ball, small salad, soup and grilled pork with a choice of bread or rice.
Overall the food is not bad and the portion is reasonable.
The thing with traveling during this pandemic. We try to pick restaurants that are spacious or have private spaces. We also arrive before the restaurants open so that we can be the first customers to avoid crowds.
