Hakusasonso Villa

Hakusasonso Villa (also called Kansetsu Hashimoto Museum), located near Ginkaku – ji Temple, was built by the Japanese painter Kansetsu Hashimoto in 1916 as his residence. Particularly wonderful is the tranquil stroll-style landscape garden with Mt. Daimonji in the background. This garden is designated by the national government as a place of scenic beauty. There is a big collection of Kansetsu’s work on display in the gallery at one corner of the garden. The garden is divided into five distinctive themes.
