Located on a hilltop in Vasco Da Gama, Goa, the Japanese Garden is a peaceful retreat offering stunning views of the sea and surrounding landscapes. Overlooking a secluded crescent beach at the bottom of a cliff, the garden provides the perfect spot for photography, sunset viewing, and enjoying the serenity of nature.
Relaxing and Scenic Escape at Japanese Garden
The garden itself features lush green grass, swings, and slides, making it an attractive spot for families with children, although the facilities are not always well-maintained. Visitors can enjoy refreshing coconut water, lime soda, and sugarcane juice from vendors outside the garden, while the tranquil atmosphere makes it an ideal place to relax. The area is also dog-friendly, though the picnic area’s conditions may not be the most comfortable.
For those interested in exploring more, the Japanese Garden is near the Mormugao Fort and can be reached via a scenic trail through tall trees and greenery. Along the way, visitors can enjoy views of sailing ships and rowing boats on the deep blue sea. The beach is accessible via a narrow, steep path that may not be suitable for young children or the elderly, as the climb back up can be exhausting and challenging, especially in the sun. For a cultural touch, the nearby Shiva Temple offers a unique stop during the journey.
