A Nod To The Sister City.

I recently spent some time at the Como Conservatory, mostly cause i had never been before, and discovered that they had quite a relaxing Japanese Garden. I love to walk through large expansive gardens that are done well, but there was something about the Japanese gardens that added a sense of peace.

I might have been the colors scheme. No splashy reds and bright yellows here.

This garden looked more like nature, with a slight hand at landscaping, and the occasional Koi pond for enjoyment.

I felt like if it was not so dang hot out that day and there were not so many strange people walking around, I wouldn't have minded just sitting down on one of the benches and relaxing for a while.
