Japanese Koi Pond

This Japanese garden located in Portland Oregon creates a sense of harmony, and tranquility and the feeling of being one with nature. Three of the essential elements used to create the garden are stone, the "bones" of the landscape; water, the life-giving force; and plants, the tapestry of the four seasons. This beautiful pond is a perfect example of the Japanese Garden. It is truly a place of serenity and peace. Photo copyright by Skip Weeks Weeks
