Point: Mifune-Jaya is a cafe located within Keishu-en. It is a Sukiya-zukuri style building, which is a traditional Japanese architectural style. The wickerwork and woven "kagome" pattern on the ceilings are beautiful, and the single-panel counter and open verandah are made of pine wood. Have a relaxing time in this space, which exudes an air of tradition.
