The Most Impressive and Enjoyable Japanese Garden in Seattle - Kubota Garden Tourism Guide
The Kubota garden is a Japanese garden on a 20 acre piece of land in Seattle, Washington. It is specifically located in the Rainier beach area and though now a public park, it was started by Fujitaro Kubota in 1923. The Japanese farmer was an emigrant who started by first buying off 5 acres of swamp land.
It was during the Second World War that the garden was abandoned for four years, though the farmer and his sons were later to build a community park on the now expansive piece of land. Until his death, Kubota had maintained the garden before it was later to be taken over by the local authority and is today managed as a recreational park.
This garden is ideal for those who would like to have an upcountry feeling considering that some of the features found there including valleys, hills ponds, streams and waterfalls are enough to relieve you of your daily stress. All this is on a twenty-acre piece of land. The Kubota family has preserved this rich place with various forms of plant life over the last sixty year.
A visit to this magnificent park reveals a rich history of the Kubota family, how the original founder of the garden immigrated to the United States and started the park, thereby slowly developing it before he sold it to the City of Seattle.
Should you decide to visit Kubota gardens and you wonder about the accommodation, then you have to realize that there are a number of hotels around. The cheap hotels offer amenities and rooms allowing you to sample breathtaking views of the magnificent park.
