Japanese Gardens at Kepaniwai Heritage Gardens
Iao Valley Maui HI
The Japanese Gardens represent emigrants who arrived from Japan in the mid 1800s to work the cane fields. Pathways lead over arched stone bridges spanning koi filled ponds and past carved stone pagodas and lanterns.
A life size bronze statue of two Japanese field workers greets visitors to the collection of tropical flowers and carefully sculptured trees. Designed by garden architect Richard Tongg.
