Anderson Japanese Gardens (Paperback)

Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. The Anderson Japanese Gardens is a 14-acre group of Japanese gardens located in Rockford, Illinois. The gardens were established in 1978 by John R. Anderson and landscape architect Hoichi Kurisu on the site of Anderson's home. They were inspired by Anderson's trips to Japan, and particularly his visit to the Portland Japanese Garden in Washington Park, Portland, Oregon, which were also designed by Kurisu.
