Japanese Garden (Micke Grove Regional Park)

The Japanese Garden in Micke Grove Regional Park is a 3-acre Japanese garden in Lodi, California, the brainchild of "Duke" Yoshimura, a Japanese-American. It was created in 1959 and designed by the landscape architect Nagao Sakurai.[1] It was opened in 1965.[2]

The garden includes fish ponds with stepping stones and Koi fish, and a five-story pagoda lantern donated to the park by Lodi’s sister city, Kofu, Japan.[1]
