HUNTINGTON LIBRARY JAPANESE GARDEN GRAND RE-OPENING

To celebrate the 100-year anniversary of the Japanese garden at Huntington Library in Pasadena, a year-long, multi-million dollar makeover was done to this cenetarian garden.  The Japenese garden will have its grand re-opening on April 11th. I was fortunate enough to see it during a sneak preview a few weeks ago and took some photos. If you've been to Huntington Library in the past few years, a lot of what you see in the photos will look familiar since the main structure/layout of the garden hasn't been changed. But they've added many new features and enlarged the garden. Construction was in full-force when I visited and there was clearly still a lot of work to be done so I'll be surprised and amazed if they actually finish on time but the grand opening date hasn't been delayed so it looks like they might actually pull it off.
