One of the best things in Kew Gardens is the Japanese themed "Japanese Landscape". I don't claim to know the intricacies of designing a Japanese garden, but what I can see is precision of the flowers, plants and trees. The attention to details of ornamentation of rocks, building and other garden features that collectively sets a scene of tranquillity. And don't miss the Gateway of the Imperial Messenger at the top of the gardens. Lovely, beautiful and peaceful.

Magical place in the mids of Kew Gardens, like a place out of this place, you feel that you are in the far east. Very comfortable and convenient to sit around these beautiful structures and forget you are in London. The sand garden is so relaxing and the whole surrounding is Beautiful. Plenty of benches or you can seat in the grass during a hot sunny day. The pagoda is only open in season, April to Sep/Oct.

Last Saturday started the Japan festival at Kew Gardens. Very nice events about art, culture, calligraphy and colourful display of chrysanthemums. We had very nice time, the staff were very kind and knowledgeable. Thank you. It was like a magical escape through Japan. Do not miss the Great Pagoda, Ginkgo grove, Bamboo garden and Minka House.

Amazing. A lovely piece of a Japanese garden in the middle of London. Tranquil and beautiful. Good chance to meet and see a peacock. I would love it to be bigger to be honest. There is plenty space around it to be hopefully used to expand it? On the way there is a treetop walkway and great pagoda. A must see.

Lovely place to visit however very much like Triggers broom not alot of the original about it. 253 steps to the top is a good workout. issued a time slot to enter so not too many people inside when you go in. Do not think it's worth paying extra on top of entrance fee to gardens though.

By definition, Japanese elements/structures are classified as inspiring and somehow induce a state of tranquillity. Everything over there flows naturally and unhindered. Just sit on a bench and allow yourself to be transported in a different world.
