The James Irvine Garden in Los Angeles, California, is a beautiful Japanese garden that is a departure from the hustle and bustle of the city. Located in Little Tokyo, this lovely garden was built in the 1970's. It has gone on to win awards and delight visitors in the years since then.
A stream runs through the center of the garden, and it is full of small waterfalls, which help to create a feeling of peace and serenity. The garden is also home to many arched bridges as well as a variety of flowers and plants. If you are in Los Angeles and would like to take some time to relieve stress, take some time to relax at the James Irvine Garden.
