[Robsterios]

Hello from Wintery Japan..I've planned to spend only limited time in Tokyo having been in the mountains for a couple weeks. .excited to head up to Omiya but only have 1 day to explore..seeing as there are a number of great Bonsai gardens to see, can anyone recommend which may be 2 or 3 preferred ones to visit..?? Advice would be greatly appreciated. ..Cheers, Rob..

When we were there last year we took photos at every nursery. I liked Mr Kobayashis by far the best. Shunkean bonsai museum.

If you ask nicely, they may let you.

you will have no problem seeing all nurserys in Omiya, its not a big town, just allow 4 or 5 hours and you have a great day.
