The Japanese gardens at the Missouri Botanical Gardens are stunning. These traditional gardens, with many stone lanterns and other features, surround a large pond. |
Raked gravel surfaces surround beautifully-shaped trees, stone lanterns, and large rocks. |
There are quite a few stone water basins with bamboo water-supply pipes. |
In the pond we saw ducks, geese, and a few egrets. |
A bridge at one end of the pond allows one to view the enormous koi |
