Japanese Garden Information​

The Japanese Garden was built in 1967, on the occasion of the visit to Argentina of the then Crown Prince Akihito, current Emperor of Japan.
The lakes of the Japanese Garden are inhabited by hundreds of colorful fish (carp). Visitors can feed the fish.
The Jardín Japonés is managed by the Argentine-Japanese Cultural Foundation. For this reason many traditional Japanese festivals take place in the Garden.
Also in the Jardín Japonés there is a library with Japanese literature and themes. Courses on Japanese cooking and culture and bonsai cultivation are also offered. The Japanese Garden is also used for meditation.

To take into account
:
On the days of free admission, in the presence of a large number of visitors, we suggest that people who want the peace and tranquility of our beautiful Garden come at another time.
The Japanese Garden does not receive a subsidy from the governments of Japan, Argentina, or the City of Buenos Aires, it is self-financing through the payment of entrance fees.
