Japanese Garden Map

The Japanese Garden is named Seiwa-en, which means the garden of pure, clear harmony and peace.
Designed with great care to ensure authenticity, this 14-acre garden is the largest Japanese strolling garden in the Western hemisphere.	Visitors are enthralled by cherry blossoms, azaleas, chrysanthemums, peonies, lotus, and other oriental plantings.
	A four-acre lake is complemented with waterfalls, streams, water-filled basins, and stone lanterns. Four islands rise from the lake to form symbolic images. Several Japanese bridges link shorelines
IMPORTANT NOTE: You will not be required to pay the normal admission fee to the Missouri Botanical Garden. Just inform the admissions desk that you are attending the Purdy-Fisher Wedding. This is an outside event; please plan your clothing appropriately. In case of poor weather the Ceremony will be moved into the auditorium.
