The Portland Japanese Garden is a 5.5-acre traditional Japanese garden nestled in Washington Park. The garden was opened to the public in 1967. The Portland Garden combines Western forms and Japanese elements very well.
Traditionally designed, gardens generally contain three elements representing the earth: stone represents mountains and islands, water represents center and purity, and plants represent color and growth. These themes are evident in the Portland Japanese Garden. The Japanese Garden focuses more on the sophistication and beauty of gardening. You can see redwood trees from the West Coast of the United States and plants with Japanese characteristics. Of course, you can see small waterfalls and water flowing between rocks everywhere.
The Portland Japanese Garden is a masterpiece of Japanese gardens outside of Japan. It also holds some activities and cultural festivals every year, attracting more than 200,000 tourists almost every year.

Wonderful experience, it was beautiful and the weather was great not too hot for the time my boyfriend and I went (around 11a). You’ll need to buy tickets in order to get in. there’s a little cafe in the garden, a gift shop and a little history on how they build everything there. The atmosphere was peaceful and my favorite was seeing the Koi fish Pond!
