Portland Japanese Garden, Japanese garden in Washington Park, Portland, United States.
The Portland Japanese Garden covers 12 acres with eight garden spaces, including strolling ponds, sand gardens, and stone arrangements across multiple levels.
Professor Takuma Tono from Tokyo University of Agriculture designed this garden in 1963, transforming a former zoo site into a cultural space.
The garden features a genuine tea house built in Japan and assembled in Portland during 1968, where traditional ceremonies take place.
The garden operates from Wednesday through Monday, 10:00 AM to 3:30 PM, with adult admission at $21.95 and discounts for seniors and students.
A five-tiered pagoda lantern, aged 100 years, stands as a gift from Portland's sister city Sapporo, marking the connection between both cities.
