Yokohama's Sankei-en Garden in Snow

Known for spring to autumn beauty, this was rare chance

Sankei-en Garden (it's actually more like a park) is generally recognized as one of Japan's most beautiful. Fresh and lovely in spring, ripe with stunning pink lotus in summer, brimming with beautifully colored leaves in autumn, its winters have a hard time competing with the other three seasons. Unless you are lucky enough to be there on a snowy day; something quite rare in Yokohama. Covered this day by a soft white blanket, it truly was a winter wonderland!
