I loved walking through this garden, it’s a hidden gem in the city. Peaceful, serene and isolated on a Tuesday afternoon. I only saw 2 other people there. Great place to sit and meditate. The pond has really pretty koi in it, too. Not dog or bike friendly so make sure to keep those out.
Whoever came up with this idea bravo. A beautiful place to take in nature and drown out the busy life. An amazing place to zen out meditate picnic and so much more. Defintly in my top 5 and definitely will be spend much more time here
We frequent this peaceful garden to see fish and birds. My son loves adventuring across the bridge and stone pathways past the waterfall. It's thoughtfully manicured and rarely uncomfortably busy.
If you're looking unique location for an engagement session or proposal this is the place! The park thrives in spring & Summer, but is the perfect spot year round! Would recommend making a visit!
Breathtaking beautiful Japanese Garden! Small but a must see. Street Parking is a must! Parking lot was a no go since the bridge is blocked off.
This place absolutely serene. Very beautiful and very well maintained. Loved to go there the first time as it was a little bit cold and that's why not a lot of people were there. It was all just nature and us. I suggest going there in first 2 weeks of May as all the flowers would be bloomed to there peak during that time period.
Very nice. This pristine hidden gem is nestled in the middle of the northern side of Jackson Park. It is full of history. In a pond happens to be several big beautiful koi fish.
It’s a peaceful place with beautiful scenery and nice arts and trees. My personal favourite Is Japan Garden.
