Mukojima-Hyakkaen Gardens were built in the Bunka-Bunsei period (the early 19th century), when Edo's urban culture was at its peak. With the help of his friends from his literary groups, Kikuu Sahara was able to develop and open a privately-operated flower garden in Mukojima, focused on ornamental flowers and plants. Hyakkaen means "a garden in which hundreds of flowers bloom throughout the year". There are also spring and autumn herbs, and people enjoy looking at the plants and flowers blooming in the fields. They have been designated as national places of scenic beauty and historic sites by the Law for Protection of Cultural Properties.
