Japan

A bright red object marks the distant land of Japan; and as you pass near the Torii Gate you will notice how different the vegitation has become as well as the architecture. From a Japanese shrine to a rock garden nothing is too big nor too small to be reflected upon.

Take a walk though sheltered rock gardens touched slightly by a quiet stream and small pools. The Japanese pavilion cannot be missed as it is marked near the lake edge by the brightly coloured Torii Gate. Within the pavilion is the large Goju-no-to pagoda building, based on a design of an early shine.

The rustic building with thatched roof is a replica of the Shoken-tei which stands in the Kyoto Imperial Villa gardens.

At the back of the Japan Pavilion is a castle-like structure with mounted samurai warriors and a hidden courtyard.
