Traditional Japanese garden designs are accompanied by Japanese aesthetics and philosophical ideas, avoid artificial ornamentation, and highlight the natural landscape. Here the sun filters through the overhead tree leaves into the quiet pond of the Japanese Gardens. Location is Washington Park in Portland, Oregon, USA. Was previously an old zoo that was made over into a beautiful garden. This pond grotto was once the enclosure for bears.
