[2025 New York Attraction] Travel Guide for Brooklyn Botanic Garden (Updated Mar)

In the midst of Brooklyn's urban jungle, I found a tranquil sanctuary that felt worlds away from the city's hustle and bustle: the Japanese Hill-and-Pond Garden in the Brooklyn Botanic Garden. This gem is one of the oldest and most visited Japanese-inspired gardens outside Japan, a testament to the timeless allure of Japanese landscape design. Combining the ancient hill-and-pond style with the more recent stroll-garden style, this garden is an artful balance of tradition and innovation. The journey through its winding paths revealed a series of carefully orchestrated scenes: the undulating contours of artificial hills around a pond, a waterfall cascading with a gentle roar, and an island standing as an epitome of solitude. The meticulous placement of rocks added to the sense of tranquillity and equilibrium, their silent presence a narrative of Zen philosophy. The garden's architectural elements further enhanced its authenticity. I crossed over wooden bridges, walked past stone lanterns, and found moments of reprieve in a viewing pavilion and a Shinto shrine. The striking vermilion-coloured wooden torii, a traditional Japanese gate, marked the spiritual significance of the space. As I stood beneath it, the sounds of Brooklyn faded into the distance, and I was momentarily transported to a serene corner of Japan, right here in the heart of New York. #shopandtrip #myperfectstaycation #urbanexplorer #tripblazers #awesomepic #celebratewithtrip #passionpassport #couplestrip #deliciousfood #BrooklynBotanicGarden #JapaneseGarden #BrooklynOasis #NYC #NewYork #GardenWonders #TravelInspiration #HiddenGems #CityScapes #ExploreMore #CulturalHeritage #Wanderlust #DiscoverNewPlaces #AdventureAwaits #TravelDiaries #UrbanRetreat #PeacefulPlaces #NatureInTheCity #TravelMoments #MustVisitPlaces #TravelPhotography

When it comes to cherry blossoms, most people think of Japan, but when the Japanese cherry blossom season is really too many tourists, here is a good place to recommend people with less scenery and no Japanese beauty in the cherry blossom season. This year's cherry blossom season can be considered to walk ~ The tides of the tidal lake in Washington (Fig. 123) The origin of the tidal lake cherry blossoms dates back to 1912, when the mayor of Tokyo, Japan, presented 3,000 Yoshino Sakura to Washington. According to statistics, the number of cherry blossoms at the peak of Chaoshan Lake once exceeded Tokyo. From the plaza across the lake is the quiet and elegant Jefferson Memorial, the lake can also row, super comfortable! Sakura Time: From early March to late April Brooklyn Botanic Garden, New York (Fig. 4:56) Brooklyn Botanical Garden, it is one of the biggest festivals in the annual cherry blossom season. A large row of cherry trees constitutes a few super romantic "Sakura Avenue", and it is like a cherry blossom rain on the cherry blossom avenue! ! You can have a picnic, chat, and a variety of beautiful photos under the cherry tree~ Sakura time: mid-late April Roosevelt Island, New York (Figure 489) Roosevelt Island is New York East A narrow long island on the river. The 800-meter-long "water shoreline" on the island is full of cherry trees, especially the cherry blossom varieties here are particularly large, very different from other cherry blossoms. The other side of the waterfront line full of cherry blossoms is the quiet East River and Manhattan skyscrapers. The two scenes really have a different flavor! Sakura time: mid-late April don't hesitate! Hurry and arrange this year's cherry blossom season trip~
