Welcome Japanese Visitors!

Each year, we are honoured to host the Japanese tourists who come to visit the Garden and Norval as they journey from Japan to Prince Edward Island on a Lucy Maud Montgomery “pilgrimage”. It is a joy to share stories with these ardent Montgomery fans who are well versed in Montgomery’s writings, including the much-loved novel Anne of Green Gables.
