Japan Shinjuku Gyoen National Garden

Just a few hundred metres off the hustle and bustle of Tokyo's Shinjuku shopping and tourist Mecca is the Shinjuku Gyoen National Garden. A very quite and beautiful garden where despite the 36+ C temperature was a calm and cooling contrast to the rest of the area.
