Japanese Friendship Garden
San Jose, California, United States
The Japanese Friendship Garden in San Jose, California, was dedicated in 1965 as a symbol of the long-standing sister city relationship between San Jose and Okayama, Japan.
It is designed after the famous Korakuen Garden in Okayama and covers about six acres in Kelley Park. The garden features classic Japanese elements such as bridges, waterfalls, and ponds stocked with koi fish sent from Okayama. It serves as a peaceful retreat for reflection and connection with nature, offering scenic paths, a tea house (currently under renovation), and areas for community events and weddings.
The garden embodies the cultural exchange and friendship between the two cities and is a popular spot for both residents and visitors to experience traditional Japanese garden aesthetics and tranquility.
