Japanese Garden nestled within the Washington Park Arboretum. There is a parking lot right outside the entrance as well as public restrooms. Although the Arboretum is free admission, access to the Japanese Garden is charged per person, but they offer membership pricing as well. Once inside, you will feel the tranquility that the garden has to offer through its winding pathways and flowing streams. There are multiple benches and grassy areas to stretch out on and take in the scenery. Towards the back of the garden, there's a dock over the koi pond where you can get up and close with the koi fish and even feed them (they sell small bags of fish food at the admission window). If you look close enough, you'll see some turtles sunning on the rocks. Overall, a very nice place for quiet conversations or even just self-reflection.

This garden is not worth visiting. Definitely not when it is paid. It is absolute waste of money. - Parking is tiny - Plenty of East Asian people visit and they either photo bomb your pictures or won't move for very long time for you to take pictures. - It will take hardly 30 minutes to tour the whole thing. Definitely don't go if you are in a group, you will end up spending too much money.

A well maintained, peaceful garden in Seattle. The sounds of the water is very relaxing. Multiple benches for areas of rest. Good place for self reflection

Beautiful garden in pretty much the heart of Seattle. Entering the arboretum and Japanese Garden transports you to a completely different place while still being in Seattle. I visited it when the Fall colors were quite vibrant and I would highly recommend checking out their Japanese Maple trees.

More and more questions arises when your here alone. Expe rice is wonderful Love every bit of this park really cool of you and much to see around specially in Capitol Hill. I would like to see if there is any type of show go on here because it would look really nice specially at dark that is when I think this place would be lit up now it’s Christmas and can’t wait to see the frozen side of this park.
