@sjarvie5 · 2022-07-20 11:54 · Wednesday Walk

In my post Share Our World: Hillwood Gardens I briefly talked about the Japanese Style Garden at Hillwood. Today I would like to take you on a walk through the gorgeous garden located at Hillwood in DC.

The paths, water features, and bridges are enchanting!

From the main path the Japanese garden is a bit hidden. You need to walk down and then you are immersed in the beauty all around you.

There was a stunning mix of Japanese plants like Japanese Maple and azaleas.

You know me. I have so much fun capturing the beautiful details of the plants.

There were some fun animals in the garden too. Do you see the animal in this picture?

Here you can see how happy I am in this gorgeous Japanese garden. ![IMG_20220428_204234-XL.jpg](https://photos.smugmug.com/Personal/Trips/2022/DC-2022/n-mSJV4w/Hillwood/i-8ZDqsZq/0/415f8088/XL/IMG_20220428_204234-XL.jpg) It really made my soul happy. Hillwood has a lot of gardens (around 6) and this one is the one that I think about the most when I think of Hillwood.
