Ohori Park Japanese Garden

In the southeastern corner of Fukuoka's sprawling Ohori Park, hidden away behind white plaster walls and a large wooden gate, lies the Ohori Park Japanese Garden. While young compared to many of Japan's gardens (it was only completed in 1975), it is nevertheless a beautiful example of a traditional stroll garden. Come here to wander among the perfectly sculpted pines and mini waterfalls and enjoy a moment's peace in a pocket of scenic splendor.
