Jardin de Monet Marmottan au Village de Kitagawa
Monet's Garden Marmottan in Kochi Prefecture is a beautiful garden that faithfully recreates the gardens of French Impressionist master Claude Monet in Giverny, France—where he spent half his life and drew deep inspiration—within the natural setting of Kochi.It is the only place in the world officially authorized by the Claude Monet Foundation in France to use the name "Monet's Garden." Opened in 2000 under the guidance of Gilbert Vahé, the former head gardener of the original Giverny garden, it is not a mere copy but incorporates unique beauty enhanced by Kochi's climate, light, and surrounding mountains and sea.
The facility is closed on the 1st and 3rd Wednesdays from June to October, as well as from December 1 to the end of February. Therefore, we will either visit a different location on those days or choose an alternative destination instead of this one.
