Point Defiance Flower & Garden Festival - Japanese Garden Tour

June 6 - 7, 2026

Guided tours of the Japanese Garden during the Point Defiance Flower & Garden Festival will highlight the garden's unique features, plants, and history.

The Japanese Garden at Point Defiance was established in the early 1960s and features azaleas, rhododendrons, Japanese cherry trees, crabapples, and large and small pines. In addition, an oriental footbridge, waterfall, Japanese lanterns, and a small “tea house” further enhance the grounds. It provides a peaceful area to enjoy a bit of solitude and is especially enchanting in early spring.
