Great free spot on a sunny day.
Great free spot on a sunny day.
You can literally get lost in this place!  It's wonderful if you have a couple hours to kill, and just like exploring.  The gardens are immaculately kept, and very extensive.  It's a surprise to find a place like this right in the heart of Seattle.

Crowded in the weekends, but always a nice spot for the ones who enjoy the PNW colors and rain.
Kubota Garden is a FREE American-Japanese Garden in South Seattle. Waterfalls, bridges, ponds and beautiful foliage!
