Peaceful Nishinomiya Tsutakawa Japanese Gardens - Spokane, Washington
This video is a condensed version of the video I posted on 12-30-2010.
Spend a few minutes with us as we stroll through the classic Japanese style garden at Manito Park, Spokane, Washington. Slow down the pace of life and enjoy the beauty of the gardens and the Kio fish pond. Surrounding the pond are traditional bonsai-looking trees and Japanese sculptures.
The garden was ranked 16th from more than 300 public Japanese gardens by The Journal of Japanese Gardening. The garden is open daily from 8:00 am to one half hour before dusk, from April 1st through November 1st.
The Nishinomiya Tsutakawa Gardens symbolizes a friendship between Spokane, Washington and its sister city of Nishinomiya, Japan. The gardens were completed in 1974.
This sequence was captured with a Canon Vixia HFS-100 and edited in Adobe Premier Pro CS6.

Cowra Japanese Garden
The Japanese War Cemetery holding the dead from the Cowra Breakout was tended to after WWII by members of the Cowra RSL and ceded to Japan in 1963. In 1971 the Cowra Tourism Development decided to celebrate this link to Japan, and proposed a Japanese Garden for the town. The Japanese Government agreed to support this development as a sign of thanks for the respectful treatment of their war dead; the development also received funding from the Australian Government and private entities.
The garden was designed by Ken Nakajima (1914-2000), a world renowned designer of Japanese gardens at the time. The first stage was opened in 1979, with a second stage opened in 1986.
The gardens were designed in the style of the Edo period and are a kaiyu-shiki or strolling garden. They are designed to show all of the landscape types of Japan. At five hectares (12 acres), the Cowra Japanese Garden is the largest Japanese garden in the Southern Hemisphere. An annual Sakura Matsuri (cherry blossom festival) is held in the gardens during late September and/or early October each year. The garden also hosts several other events during the year.

Shinjuku Gyoen
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Shinjuku Gyoen National Garden (新宿御苑 Shinjuku Gyoen?) is a large park with an eminent garden in Shinjuku and Shibuya, Tokyo, Japan. It was originally a residence of the Naitō family (daimyo) in the Edo period. Afterwards, it became a garden under the management of the Imperial Household Agency of Japan. It is now a park under the jurisdiction of the national Ministry of the Environment.
History
The imperial gardens, which were once meant for the royalty, were completed in 1906 and destroyed in 1945, during the later stages of World War II. The jurisdiction over the Imperial Palace Outer Garden and the Kyoto imperial garden was transferred to the Ministry of Health and Welfare (now part of the Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare) with Shinjuku Imperial Gardens in 1947.
On May 21, 1949 the gardens became open to the public as National Park Shinjuku Imperial Gardens. It came under the jurisdiction of the Ministry of the Environment in January 2001 with the official name Shinjuku Gyoen National Garden.
Features
The gardens, which are 58.3 hectares in area with a circumference of 3.5km, blend three distinct styles: French Formal, English Landscape and Japanese traditional. A traditional Japanese tea house can be found within the gardens.
The gardens are a favourite hanami (cherry-blossom viewing) spot, and large crowds can be found in the park during cherry blossom season.
Flora
The gardens have more than 20,000 trees, including approximately 1,500 cherry trees which bloom from late March (Shidare or Weeping Cherry), to early April (Somei or Tokyo Cherry), and on to late April (Kanzan Cherry). Other trees found here include the majestic Himalayan cedars, which soar above the rest of the trees in the park, tulip trees, cypresses, and plane trees, which were first planted in Japan in the Imperial Gardens.
Horticulture work has been going on in the greenhouses in the gardens since 1892. The present greenhouse, built in the 1950s has a stock of over 1,700 tropical and subtropical plant species on permanent display.
Entrances and admission
The gardens have three access gates: Shinjuku Gate, Okido Gate and Sendagaya Gate. Shinjuku Gyoen is open from 9:00 until 16:30. On Mondays the gardens are closed, except during the cherry blossom and chrysanthemum seasons: late March--late April and early November respectively, when the gardens are open seven days a week. The greenhouse, usually open from 11:00 until 15:00 is closed until some time in 2011. The last admission is 16:00.
Admission is JPY 200 for adults, JPY 50 for children.
Location
The gardens are a short walk from Shinjuku-gyoemmae Station on the Marunouchi Line or Sendagaya Station on the Chūō-Sōbu Line.
The garden is on the Fukutoshin Line near Shinjuku-sanchōme Station. From that station the garden is a four-minute walk.
Shinjuku Gyoen should not to be confused with Shinjuku Central Park, a small green area located behind the Tokyo Metropolitan Government Building in Nishi-Shinjuku. Čerešňový kvet
