Parks & Nature
Within walking distance from our house, Seattle Japanese Garden is 3.5 acre urban sanctuary in Madison Valley. Winding paths and benches invite you to view the garden slowly and mindfully, in all of its detail - stones, water, lanterns, bridges, buildings, plants and animals. Seasonal changes are constant, and every visit refreshingly unique.
The gardens are closed usually from Dec to March, so double check to make sure they are open if you're visiting in Winter.
Check their website for special events, such as tea ceremonies: https://www.seattlejapanesegarden.org/
