The Miyazu Garden is a tranquil, Japanese-inspired park that offers a peaceful haven in which to escape and enjoy a quiet stroll or moment of contemplation. The garden features calming elements throughout such as reflective ponds, babbling brooks, trickling bamboo spouts, and small ponds, as well as pretty bridges, blossoming cherry trees, a beautiful rock garden, and a quaint tea house. Notable features in the garden include a weathered 30-year-old bonsai tree known as Jim's Pine; Crane and Tortoise Islands in the Raupo Pond; an abstract Yen garden; and a stone basin for the traditional cleaning ritual done before entering the tea house.
