The Korakuen Park at Okayama

The Korakuen Park at Okayama

Thanks to Wikipedia for this: Kōraku-en (後楽園), is a Japanese garden located in Okayama, Okayama Prefecture. It is one of the Three Great Gardens of Japan, along with Kenroku-en and Kairaku-en. Korakuen was built in 1700 by Ikeda Tsunamasa, lord of Okayama. The garden reached its modern form in 1863.  As for the postcard, it was mailed with stamp and postmark.  We don’t know which year, but the writer was happy because they had just heard that Roosevelt was elected.  So that narrows the options.  Grade: 2
