Japanese Tea Garden (Golden Gate Park)

The Japanese Tea Garden at 75 Hagiwara Tea Garden Drive was established in 1894 as part of the California Midwinter International Exposition and is cited as the oldest public Japanese garden in the United States. The garden features traditional elements such as a drum bridge, stone lanterns, pagodas, and carefully maintained plantings, and it operates as a public attraction within Golden Gate Park. It has long been a cultural and neighborhood landmark for residents and visitors alike.
