Ben
Nice garden, but a little neglected
Oliver
This is a very nice garden at Waseda university. There is a well maintained lawn, and a small wood with some Japanese garden features such as stone lanterns, steps, and a small stream etc. although not large, it does offer some seating and a calm place to step away from the hustle and bustle of the campus. It is also conveniently close to the '125 Uni Shop and Cafe.' Away from the lawn, one can find a few small and picturesque spots among the trees that make nice photo spots.
Bharat
Very serene and beautiful Japanese garden with a old Japanese style house, big bell, running stream, colorful flowers and miniature bobsai trees. There is a uni cafe next door and next to Rihga Royal hotel which has an entrance through back.

Very beautiful place to relax and enjoy nature alone or with friends. It's very calm place, beautiful colours, there is a small pond also.
Helio
Nice place for relaxing time. Beautiful flowers in summertime, trees everywhere. Small but interesting and calm place. A Japanese garden as it was expected: stones, lawn, flowers and water. A gazebo where you can stay and read, write ir just look at the sky.
