1 minute
The tour starts with a visit to the contemporary gardens of Tokachi Millennium Forest, designed by Dan Pearson and situated on Japan’s most northerly island, Hokkaido. We’ll learn about the spirit of nature and sense of placepruning and offer advice on the tools they use. We’ll also discover both renowned gardens and lesser-known, hidden cultural gems, such as the beautifully preserved, historic Sumiya Pleasure House in Kyoto. These varied landscapes combine the intimate essence of nature with the disciplines of cosmology, poetry and meditation, and through Hannah’s formal and informal instruction, we will come to understand the history and meaning of these serene and spiritual landscapes.
