"First opened to the public in 1967 and expanded in 2017, the Japanese Garden in Portland ’s West Hills is an essential stop on a visit to the city. After a $33.5 million expansion that included three new buildings designed by architect Kengo Kuma—a Japanese Arts Learning Center, a Garden House for horticultural workshops, and a café—the Japanese Garden now spreads across nine acres. A tea garden, a 185-foot “castle wall,” and a new welcome center were also added. The centerpiece is the Strolling Pond Garden, with thousands of Japanese trees and plants."
