Japanese Garden, Japanese strolling garden in Suita, Japan.

The Japanese Garden in Suita is a strolling garden that extends through multiple sections with curved paths, stone bridges, and water features. Carefully arranged plants and flowers that change with the seasons are distributed throughout the landscaped areas.

The garden was created by the Japanese government as its own exhibit for Expo '70, the 1970 world exposition held in Suita, and was designed and supervised by landscape architect Tajiroku Rō. It remained after the fair closed and still shows its original layout. In 2006 it was registered as a national monument of Japan as the Expo '70 Commemorative Park Japanese Garden.

The garden is divided into four sections named for historical eras: Jōdai, Chūsei, Kinsei and Gendai. The Chūsei section holds a tea garden with the tea houses Hon'an and Banri-an, while the Gendai section has a lotus pond, an iris bed and a pond shaped like a halved mortar bowl for koi and goldfish.

The garden lies inside Expo '70 Commemorative Park and is reached from Park East Exit Station, the stop for the National Museum of Ethnology and the Japan Folk Crafts Museum. It opens at 9:30 and closes at 17:00, and is closed every Wednesday. The grounds cover 26 hectares, so allow time to walk between the four sections.

The modern garden's observation pond is shaped like a halved mortar, its bottom holding coloured carp and goldfish, with a lotus pond and iris bed beside it. From the hillside rest house visitors look out over the Hokusetsu mountains, past a sparse sawtooth oak grove and terraced flower beds.
