Fukuoka Garden, New Japanese garden in central Auckland

We visited the newly opened Japanese garden located in the Western springs Lakeside park. It was opened on 17th July. So it is a very new park. It is still on the development and not fully open to the public. We hope to go visit there again some day when the park has been fully built. It was raining so we had to hide in the shelter at the park. But we shot some very beautiful scenery so it was worthwhile in the rain.

The following information is from the website
http://ourauckland.aucklandcouncil.govt.nz/articles/news/2017/07/oasis-in-central-auckland-blooms-again/

“Tranquil, authentic and beautiful are just some of the words to describe the restored Fukuoka Garden, which opened on 17 July at its new location in Western Springs Lakeside Park.

The garden replaces the original Fukuoka Friendship Garden built in Auckland Zoo, which was given to Auckland in 1989 from Japan’s Fukuoka City in recognition of the sister-city relationship. ”

“The new garden, which is 2.6 times larger than the original and free for people to enjoy, has a tea pavilion, waterfall and pond. It features over 1800 native Japanese and New Zealand species and incorporates items preserved from the original garden including four bonsai trees, paving stones, lanterns, a water basin and the entrance. ”
