■ About 'Mito Koubun Terrace'

The facility name 'Koubun' is an alternative name for the plum blossom, originating from a story about Emperor Wu of Jin, which suggests that 'if one applies oneself to study, the plum will bloom; if one neglects it, it will not.' Based on this story, it is said that Tokugawa Nariaki, the 9th Lord of the Mito Domain, named the building in the adjacent Kairakuen Garden 'Kobuntei.' We named it 'Mito Koubun Terrace' to serve as an exchange hub open to the community, acting as a 'terrace space' that enhances the value of staying in the park while respecting the harmony with plum culture and scenery, and inheriting the history, regional character, and scenic views of the area.

Our group aims to create a 'well-being Park'...
