JGarden Description:This Japanese garden includes a woodland and water garden organized around a small stream. An interesting trivia about the site is that John Paul Jones, the founder of the US Navy, worked in the gardens as a boy. The cottage where he was born is nearby (also open to visitors). 




In the distance,
Neither flowers nor maple leaves
Are to be see
Only a thatched hut beside the bay
In autumn's twilight.
