Seattle | A Hidden Green Sanctuary on the Island

-Bloedel Reserve Our destination on Bainbridge Island was this beautiful reserve. We arrived around 2:00 PM, and the weather was perfect—sunny and bright. The entire visit took us about two hours, and we even missed the Japanese garden along the way, so make sure to allocate plenty of time for your visit. ⏳ I highly recommend this place. It’s perfect for a leisurely stroll and a deep breath of fresh air. From the moment you step into the reserve, you’re surrounded by lush greenery. Following the map, you’ll reach a white building that serves as a museum introducing the history of the reserve. The view from outside the building is stunning—a transition from the forest to the ocean. 🌲🌊 When we visited, it was cherry blossom season, and we encountered a large, magnificent cherry blossom tree. While there aren’t any particularly rare plants here, the overall scenery and atmosphere are truly wonderful. It’s definitely worth taking a walk around. 🌸 #VancouverLife #VancouverSurroundings #VancouverWeekend #SeattleTravel #SeattleLife #Seattle #SeattleWeekend #SeattleSurroundings #LivingInTheForest #HealingParks #HiddenGemsInTheCity #TradingWintersForSpring #LifeInNorthAmerica #Seattle
