Kubota Garden
Kubota Garden Review
A serene 20 acres of streams, waterfalls, ponds, and rock outcroppings, Kubota Garden, a designated historical landmark of the city of Seattle, was created by Fujitaro Kubota, a 1907 emigrant from Japan. The gardens on the Seattle University campus and the Japanese Garden at the Bloedel Reserve on Bainbridge Island are other examples of his work. The garden is free to visitors and tours are self-guided, though you can go on a docent-led tour on the fourth Saturday of every month, April through October, at 10 am.
