Facility Information

This beautiful Japanese Garden had its beginnings in 1959 through the guidance of “Duke” Yoshimura. Seeking to bridge the Japanese community with the people of San Joaquin County, Duke asked William Micke for permission to build a garden honoring his cultural heritage. True to his nature, Micke thought it was a wonderful idea and set aside three acres for the garden. Today, it offers a tranquil setting within the midst of bustling regional park. Among its more prominent features is an indoor Tea Pavilion with seating for 50, peaceful Koi pond featuring several colored varieties of the fish and striking red arch bridge accented with eight bronze lotus flower bud finials. The garden remains popular for weddings or ceremonies (no receptions allowed, food and drink prohibited) as well as for those interested in a stroll among its harmonious surroundings. Pets are prohibited.
