Denmark’s most beautiful garden

Twice, The Creative Garden has been named Denmark’s most beautiful garden. And when you walk around the 4,250 m2 garden, you understand why. The large, hilly garden is landscaped with an impressive sense of detail and you feel transported to Japan when you look at the many beautifully formed trees and bushes and the Asian-inspired buildings designed and built by the owner of the garden.

The garden aims to be a place with room for tranquillity and immersion – inspired by the Japanese meditation garden.

The garden has a total of 50 different trees that are shaped according to the Japanese bonsai art form. In addition, you will find 50 Japanese maples and a host of colourful shrubs that help add colour to the garden.

 

The large carp

Two rippling streams flow through the garden and end in two lakes with carp and goldfish. The large, tame Koi carps are popular with children.

 

Enjoy a quiet moment in the beautiful pagodas
