The Huntington Library-Chinese & Japanese Gardens Part 2
My recent trip to the Huntington Library and Gardens left me quite a collection of photographs. As I mentioned in my first post, I was really impressed and surprised by both the Chinese and Japanese gardens. My favorite kind of gardens tend to be European formal style gardens. Although both of these types of gardens aren't necessarily in that style, each had their own unique style of organization. Both incorporated water features in such a beautiful way. These are some of my favorite pics.

Another walking bridge, love the reflection of the bridge in the water.
I loved the colors of this plant.

This is the view from the terrace outside of the restaurant at the Chinese garden. This is another one of the structures in this garden and the reflection here was so beautiful.
This is the view to the right side of the terrace. I love the patterning in the wooden rail.
Love the detailed molding pieces along the curved roof line.
Another bridge, this time in the Chinese garden.
