Portland is home to an incredible garden that was planted to heal wounds and bring two cultures closer together. While some locals at first resisted the planting of the garden in 1963, the Japanese Garden has become an Oregon gem and a Portland treasure and is much loved by all.

Some prefer to visit the garden in spring when everything is in bloom, while others flock to the garden in fall for the garden's vibrant changing colors. Summer is also a lovely time to visit when the trees have all filled out.
