Fort Worth Botanic Garden: 4 Tickets to Japanese Garden

Enjoy the captivating beauty of the oldest botanic garden in Texas. Fort Worth’s Botanic Gardens are home to more than 2,500 species of plants in its 23 specialty gardens. No matter the season there is always something spectacular to see. While over 90% of the Garden is free, there is an admission cost for the Japanese Garden.

The Fort Worth Japanese Garden was completed in 1973. It is a traditional stroll garden with winding paths through the landscapes and around ponds.  The Garden consists of 7.5 acres filled with cherry trees, Japanese maples, magnolias, bamboo, bridges, and ponds which are home to over 1,200 Koi fish.  

Except in the spring, there are few flowers blooming in the Japanese Garden due to the Japanese practice of  Mono no Aware. Mono no Aware translates to transient/bittersweet beauty, meaning if the garden was always blooming it would never be special.
