Time Out says

One of the few surviving feudal lords' gardens in Tokyo, Kyu Shiba dates back to the early Edo era and centres around a pond that's home to a sizeable koi carp population. Occasionally mentioned among the city's most beautiful gardens, it's best admired from the top of the small hill on the south side.
