Kenroku-en, meaning the garden of six virtues, is in the city of Kanazawa. With its lake, its waterfalls and its 8000 trees belonging to 18 different species, this vast garden is one of the most beautiful in Japan.

As Kanazawa's harsh winter approaches, the gardeners engage in a curious airborne ballet. They are putting up Yuki-tsuri - giant bamboo and rope umbrellas designed to keep the weight of the snow off the big trees.
