This week I really enjoyed visiting the Japanese Garden. Apparently, it is the largest authentic Japanese garden outside of Japan, which was pretty cool to experience since it gives a little bit of insight of what it would be like in Japan without having to travel there. It was really beautiful and serene, there were a lot of people just relaxing and leisurely reading books. We don’t have may places like this in the United States, so it was different to experience an environment like this that seems like a natural part of their culture.
