Any time; the garden is a masterpiece in every season
The Adachi Museum of Art pairs a fine collection of modern Japanese painting with a living garden that has been ranked the best in Japan every year for two decades. You do not walk the garden; it is composed to be viewed like a series of hanging scrolls through the museum's picture windows, every pine and raked gravel bank meticulously tended - a uniquely Japanese idea of the garden as a framed work of art.
