Ginkgo
In Japan, the Ginkgo occupies a special place in culture and landscape. Introduced as early as the 12th century, it has become an emblematic element of the archipelago. It is frequently found in Shinto shrines, where it is venerated as shinboku, a sacred tree sheltering local spirits.
In Tokyo, the Ginkgo has acquired a special status. Since 1989, it has been the official emblem of the Japanese capital. Its stylized leaf adorns the logo of Tokyo Metro, and many of the city's parks are populated by these majestic trees. The avenue of Ginkgos in Meiji-Jingu Gaien Park is particularly famous, attracting numerous photographers every autumn to immortalize the spectacle of golden leaves.
Beyond its ornamental value, Ginkgo is also appreciated for its culinary virtues. Its nuts, known as ginnan, are eaten roasted and can be found in a number of traditional dishes, notably izakayas.
