1 U.S. Japanese Gardens a railroad odyssey from Atlanta to San Francisco View the blog at: (photos by Bill F. Eger) Taniguchi s gift to the city of Austin The Isamu Taniguchi Garden at Zilker Botanical Garden undoubtedly has the best view of Austin, Texas. The best view in town according to one garden volunteer is from the Isamu Taniguchi Garden at the Zilker Botanical Garden. Many thanks are due Marion Alsup for her hospitality during our recent visit to the Taniguchi Garden at Zilker Botanical Garden in Austin, Texas. She greeted us at the train station, hung cool scarves around our necks, pressed bottles of water into our hands, plus she organized other garden personnel to meet us on site to answer additional questions. Alsup is vice
2 president of the Austin Area Garden Center with responsibility for education and president of the Docents of Zilker Botanical Garden. She provided running commentary as we toured the winding trails. Marion Alsup and Donna Friedenreich explain the Sister City relationship with Oita, which gave this stone gate to the garden. Three acres of rugged caliche hillside were transformed into a garden in the late 1960s by Isamu Taniguchi when he was 70 years old. Working for 18 months with occasional help from two parks and recreation department staffers, Taniguchi brought forth his gift to the city of Austin first in gratitude for the education that his two sons received there and second in an aspiration for peace.
3 lantern at top entry to the garden Taniguchi was born in Osaka, Japan. By the age of 16 he was raising bonsai. Migrating to Stockton, California in 1915, he farmed vegetables and fruit, returning to Japan only once to marry. During World War II, he and his family were interned in California and Texas. The family moved to the Rio Grande Valley at the end of the war to continue farming. The Austin Area Garden Center and the Parks and Recreation Department could not turn down his generous offer of a garden. Working without a salary, a contract or a written plan, Taniguchi showed up for work, rain or shine, and created paths and streams, waterfalls and ponds, stone arrangements and plantings. The garden opened to the public in Taniguchi s son Alan was Dean of the UT School of Architecture that year. An essay by the elder Taniguchi The Spirit of the Garden describes not only the garden, but its builder: It has been my wish that through the construction of this visible garden, I might provide a symbol of universal peace. By observing the genuine peaceful nature of the garden, I believe that we should be able to knock on the door of our conscience, which once was obliged to be the slave of the animal nature in man rather than of the humanity which resides on the other side of his heart. It is my desire for the peace of mankind which has endowed this man of old age the physical health and stamina to pile stone upon stone without a day s absence from the work for the last 18 months. It is my desire for peace of mankind which encouraged me in my voluntary labor to complete this long-dreamed gift for the city of Austin this Oriental Garden. It is my wish that you have pleasant communion with the spirit of the garden.
4 A small lantern and a hidden waterfall are part of the ponds that spell out Austin. Several garden ponds spell out the word Austin. A rustic wooden log Togetsu-kyo or Bridge to Walk Over the Moon is nearby. The final pond holds lotus Taniguchi raised from a seed from Japan and several varieties of water lily. There is a small central island in the shape of a boat with stepping stones through the pond in the shape of the boat s chain and anchor.
5 The lowest pond features a boat-shaped island with wisteria, water lilies and lotus grown by Mr. Taniguchi. The story of the lotus seed Journey of the Third Seed is recounted as a children s story by Jane Scoggins Bauld. Taniguchi continued to be involved with the garden leading occasional tours. He died in Terry Ward, bonsai master and garden volunteer was present for the planting of many of the older trees in the garden. I ve helped train several garden staff in the art of pruning the trees. New staffer Robert Spider DeVictoria came to the Taniguchi garden two and a half years ago from Brooklyn where he recalled falling in love with Japanese gardens at the botanical garden there. Terry Ward enjoys the view from one of several comfortable benches throughout the garden. There are some outstanding maples and 21 kinds of bamboo in this 3-acre garden.
6 Thirty different garden clubs such as the Austin Pond Society, Texas Bamboo Society, the Austin Bonsai Society, the Austin Ikebana Study Group and other associations were organized into the non-profit Austin Area Garden Center in The Austin Park and Recreation Department owns the land. The Garden Center built the building, organizes volunteers, trains docents and staffs the gift shop, according to Donna Friedenreich, president of AAGC. The Heart O Texas Orchid Society donated a Japanese teahouse with a view of the Austin skyline beyond the bamboo. It is named Ten-Wa-Jin (Heaven, Harmony, Man) to convey once more Taniguchi s message that man exists in harmony with nature and that a garden is the embodiment of the peaceful coexistence of all the elements of nature.

8 view from the teahouse Stone gates flanking a newer slate path were a gift from Austin s Sister City Oita, dedicated in November 1999 to mark the lasting friendship between the two cities. English text is on the interior of the western gate. Once a year, a garden festival is held, usually during the last weekend in March. In 2013, the garden festival will be held the first weekend in April due to the Easter holiday, said Marion Alsup, Docent Club president.
9 new gate at the north end The garden recently received a generous donation from the Orton family, which was used to reconstruct an existing path to meet ADA requirements, adding a new gate at the north end. See more here: detail of new gate In addition, the garden receives welcome support from the Japan America Society of Greater Austin. The city books weddings to be held in the garden and retains the revenue. Other events are partnered with AAGC and the proceeds are split. According to Friedenreich, one highly successful event has funded repair of leaking ponds with Dragon Coat. Each year, the garden hosts several hundred thousand people. Thousands of school children are reached by the Zilker Botanical Garden s educational outreach programs and many school groups come for a visit. It was a delight to see the school children enjoying the waterfall,
