Kubota Garden (aka Kubota Japanese Garden) is a hidden gem tucked away in South Seattle. A public park since 1987, this 20-acre piece of land blends Japanese garden concepts with native Northwest plants. Stroll through the well maintained paths and enjoy the beautiful settings of hills and valleys with streams, waterfalls, ponds, bridges, and rock out-cropping’s with a rich array of plant material.
