~ Trip to the Japanese Sunken Tea Gardens in SA, tex ! ( pics)
« on: July 07, 2008, 06:01:32 AM »
  Another fun and exciting weekend with Maria. We decided to take a quick trip to downtown San Antonio to visit the Japanese Sunken Tea Gardens.
Began in 1917 this was actually a rock quarry that was exausted of it's rock and then donated to the city. Prison labor was used to construct the many trails, bridges and walls to this beautiful garden area.
 In 1926, at the City's invitation, Kimi Eizo Jingu, a local Japanese-American artist, moved to the garden and opened the Bamboo Room, where light lunches and tea were sold. After Mr. Jingu's death in the late 1930s, his family continued to operate the tea garden until 1942, when they were evicted because of anti-Japanese sentiment during World War II.
 A Chinese-American family operated the facility until the early 1960s, and it was known as the Chinese Sunken Garden. In 1984, the area was rededicated as the Japanese Tea Garden in a ceremony attended by the Jingu's children and representatives of the Japanese government.

And here are some pics :
