LA Slice number 7 !
The Japanese Gardens
The Japanese Garden is a 6.5 acre public garden located on the grounds of the Tillman Water Reclamation Plant in the Sepulveda Basin Recreation Area of the central San Fernando Valley.
Its name in Japanese is SuihoEn meaning "garden of water and fragrance." The idea of having a Japanese Garden adjacent to a water reclamation plant was conceived by Donald C. Tillman. The garden’s purpose was to demonstrate a positive use of reclaimed water, in what is usually considered a delicate environment, a Japanese garden. The ponds and irrigation use reclaimed water from the adjacent water reclamation plant.
All that aside, this is a beautiful garden in the midst of a fast paced, chaotic city. If you’re looking for peace, quiet and a little solitude this garden should be on your list. See for yourself…..
