Seattle Chinese Garden — Monday, Apr. 24, 2023

Puget Sound and Islands > Seattle-Tacoma Area

This Chinese Garden is under development at the South Community College. Next to it is a nice aboretum.  There is a very nice Chinese structure with courtyard but it is not open on Mondays - the day we went.  The garden has a lovely pagoda and many peonies close to blooming.  There is a large fish sculpture over 100 years old and interesting rock from Taihu Lake in China.This is a large wild area and it must be a lot of work to carve out gardens!

We had never been to this part of Seattle and enjoyed taking the #125 bus there from downtown.  Quite a route and a nice residential area!  The Alki Cafe at the school is open until 2pm.
