Le Vin Museum Rose Festival 2019
Saturday, June 15 – Sunday, July 7
The museum opened in 1997 in a nearly exact replica of the Bunka Gakuin building founded and designed by Isaku Nishimura in Surugadai, Tokyo in 1921. At a time when school buildings looked like barracks, the delightful architecture and garden designed by Isaku Nishimura in the style of an English cottage were the talk of the town at the time. During the period when the roses in the garden are at their best, the museum café offers a 100 yen discount.
