Kubota Gardens

Beautiful Japanese gardens

5500 Renton Avenue South
Seattle, WA 98104

If one were to guess the least likely thing to appear at the corner of South 55th and Renton avenues, Japanese gardens might come to mind. Nevertheless, beating the odds are these 20 splendid acres of lush greenery, feeding ponds and footbridges painted bright red with gold accents. Fujito Kubota, a master gardener and landscaper, gave the park to the city of Seattle in 1987. Admission is free. Plant sales are held in May and September to raise funds for maintenance.
