    "A garden was composed by our Japanese twin city Sapporo [for the IGA 1983] in which various elements from the aristocratic pond-island garden, the meditation garden and the garden for the tea ceremony are merged into one unit. This garden is essentially in style the Heian period (around 800 AD). " (Building Department Munich)
    The garden is still in a very good condition, even if the maples and pines that dominate the picture are apparently no longer vital.

      The Japanese Garden in Munich's West Park
      The Japanese Garden was created in Munich's West Park as part of the 1983 International Garden Exhibition, at the same time as the Chinese Garden, the Thai Temple and the Nepalese Pagoda. It is a mixture of Shinto style (lake stage and two wooden lanterns) with Zen style. The waiting shelter, walkway, tea house, waterfall and stone lanterns are in Zen style.

        Little gem in Westpark, very nicely laid out. The large information board at the entrance provides information on how the visitor should enter and perceive the garden.
