Artifacts Collection — Japanese Friendship Garden

The Japanese Friendship Garden (JFG) is an expression of friendship between San Diego and its sister city, Yokohama that illustrates two cultures and creates an immersive experience into Japanese culture. JFG’s design is based on centuries-old Japanese techniques adapted to San Diego’s climate and florae and seeks to foster a relationship between humans and nature, providing a respite attuned to Japanese simplicity, serenity, and aestheticism.
