Visitors to Yokokan will likely notice the parade of colorful stones placed throughout the garden, which utilizes elements from all over the country. One of the highlights of this parade is a 5-meter-long rock bridge found just beside the garden’s moon-viewing room. Along the water’s edge, colorful stepping-stones are lined up, including purple stone from Mikuni, pink granite from Tsuruga, and emerald green metamorphic rock, among others. A tsukubai washbasin made of shakudani stone is also lovely.
