The garden colors harmonize with a Japanese teahouse

Moss covers the grounds like a green-yellow carpet

The beauty of autumn colors in Hakone

The fresh green of bamboo trees mixed with colorful maple tree leaves

Trees throw mysterious shadows on the moss

The ups and downs of the garden enhance the beauty of the autumn leaves

Moss on the rocks contrasts nicely with the brilliant red leaves

Some large trees add to the beauty of the garden

Red leaves above and on a thatched wall

Dried leaves on the soft moss and grass

The moss garden of the Hakone Museum of Art becomes a hidden paradise in mid-November. 130 kinds of moss cover the garden, showing off their brilliant, bright greens. More than 200 Japanese maple leaf trees (momiji) are a stunning crimson. And the combination of the beauty of colors and the museum’s traditional teahouses harmonize in a rolling landscape. An index of "Hakone's seven nice museums" series is here.
