「立田自然公園・泰勝寺跡」熊本県・”"Tatsuda Natural Park, Taisho-ji Temple Ruins" Kumamoto Pref

加藤清正の後を受けて肥後藩を治めた細川家初代から三代までの霊廟がおかれた菩提寺「泰勝寺跡」（明治の廃仏毀釈で廃寺）を熊本市が細川家より貸借し「立田自然公園」として有料で開放しています。敷地内には細川家の別邸（見学不可）や細川三斎の設計図面に基づき大正時代に復元された茶室「仰松軒（こうしょうけん）」が残され、その手水鉢は細川三斎が京都で愛用したもので豊臣秀吉や千利休もつかったものです。他にも細川ガラシャ夫人愛用の蹲が墓所に置かれています。熊本大学キャンパスにも近い閑静な環境にある公園には池や竹林や苔庭などがあり訪れる人も少なめで静寂に包まれています。

"Tatsuda Natural Park, Taisho-ji Temple Ruins" Kumamoto Pref

The Hosokawa clan, who ruled the Higo clan after Kiyomasa Kato, rented the "Taishoji Temple" (abandoned temple due to the abolition of Buddha in the Meiji era) from the Hosokawa clan, where the mausoleums of the first to third generations were located. It is open for a fee. On the premises, the Hosokawa family's villa (cannot be visited) and the tea room "Koushoken" restored in the Taisho era based on the design drawings of Hosokawa Sansai are left, and Hosokawa Sansai is in Kyoto for the water bowl. It was a favorite of the Toyotomi Hideyoshi and Sen no Rikyu. In addition, Mrs. Hosokawa Gracia's favorite tsukubai is placed in the graveyard. The park, which is located in a quiet environment near the Kumamoto University campus, has a pond, bamboo grove, and moss garden, and the number of visitors is small and quiet.
