Summary

Description
English: Pagodas are Buddhist shrines usually made of stone, brick or wood. They derive from the stupa of ancient india, a funeral mound erected over the remains of a holy man or king. They were introduced to Japan in the 6th century. This pagoda was from the Japanese Exhibit of the Panama-Pacific International Exposition of 1915.

The Japanese Tea Garden is a popular feature of Golden Gate Park, originally built as part of a sprawling World's Fair, the California Midwinter International Exposition of 1894.

The oldest public Japanese garden in the United States, this complex of many paths, ponds and a teahouse features native Japanese and Chinese plants.
