Garden of the Phoenix, Japanese garden in Jackson Park, Chicago, United States.

The garden features traditional Japanese elements including a pond with stepping stones, waterfalls, stone lanterns, and an arched wooden bridge across the water.

The site originated as Japan's contribution to the 1893 World's Columbian Exposition, where the Phoenix Pavilion stood as a gift from Japan to Chicago.

The garden serves as a physical representation of the enduring relationship between Japan and the United States, featuring cherry trees that bloom each spring.

Visitors can access the garden daily from dawn to dusk at 6401 South Stony Island Avenue, with limited parking available along nearby streets.

In 2013, artist Yoko Ono installed SKYLANDING, a metal lotus sculpture, at the location where the original Phoenix Pavilion once stood before its destruction.
