Tea Garden - Hakone Historic District - Saratoga, CA - NRHP Historic Districts - Contributing Buildings on Waymarking.com

"The Tea Garden at Hakone is modeled on the Roji tradition, and contains many quiet and serene views. It is located northeast of the Upper House and forms a curved boundary between the Hill and Pond Garden, and the nearby Zen Garden. The Tea Garden also forms a buffer or transition zone between the the rolling and varied landscape of the Hill and Pond Garden and the static, flat calm of the Zen Garden. 7 The Tea Garden contains many mature plants and trees, including Japanese maples, hinoki cypress, wisteria vines, and black pine that were imported from Japan by the Stines between 1915 and 1917."
