05-12 Nov23 Tokyo, Japan
We extended our trip to the Shuga Ten show in Ueno Park, Tokyo, to visit the Shunkaen Bonsai Museum of Kunio Kobayashi and was invited to dine with Kobayashi San and his apprentices .
Ming visited the Toshogu Shrine in Ueno by herself
We also visited the nurseries in Omiya village, where we met Sam Frye from the UK who has just started his 6 years apprenticeship with Hiroshi Takeyama of Fuyo-en.
Although it was raining, we couldn't miss the Oedo Antique Market, Tokyo which is the biggest outdoor antique market in Japan.
