It was popularized through TV programs and word of mouth as the “Water Lilies" of famous French painter Claude Monet.
The beautiful Monet pond where colored carp (錦鯉, Nishikigoi) swim through the transparent pond is great for Instagram photos.
There are koi whose head pattern looks like a heart symbol in the pond and a gold carp for luck as well.
The History of Monet's Pond
In 1999, the nearby flower seedling producers weeded and some carp were brought in by locals.
It's purpose was not sightseeing, so it was mere chance that such natural beauty came to be.
Golden Week in 2016 attracted 3,000 tourists per day.

The best time to visit Monet's Pond to experience its full beauty is during the fall when you can enjoy the magnificent view of the autumn leaves reflected in the pond.
This can be seen from 1:10 in the video.
We also recommend going in early May when the greenery is fresh or in the winter when the snow has created a beautiful snowscape.
As the appearance will change considerably depending on the weather, we recommend avoiding rainy days and going at night.
