Noguchi is R-den

Noguchi Garden is a place that feels unreal. I wanted to get away from studies for a while and go somewhere far, a place where I can forget it all. After looking through the maps for a while, I find the Noguchi Garden. After reading a bit of its history behind the art, I realize that it could be a nice place to visit. I got to the garden through the bus south and then walked on foot towards the garden. It was a little awkward since I was a casual student with a huge backpack walking down business buildings with people in fancy attire walking down and lightly staring. After a bit, I made it. It felt so unreal, something about the environment was so soothing to me. It may not be for everyone, as it can be boring for some people. But for other people like me, just sitting on the bench and staring at the whole landscape is just, serene. I loved it and I’ve visited two more times after school. Nobody was ever really there, it always felt like a safe haven. A place to get away from the metropolitan city and scholarly stress for once.

This is a great place to go and sit quietly. It is surrounded by a group of buildings, so during lunch there is some foot traffic walking around, but the buildings also give it an enclosed private feel. A wonderful place to get a meditative respite. The garden has a few types of environments for you to enjoy. Make sure to read about it on the placards they have put up.
