Kensington and Chelsea parks open Fukushima Garden

As an expression of deep gratitude and appreciation of the UK’s support following the 3/11 disaster in Japan, the Fukushima Garden designed by famed Kyoto landscape gardener Yasuo Kitayama, has been opened in Holland Park.

The Fukushima Garden opened on 24 July to commemorate the deep gratitude of the Japanese people to the British people for their support following the natural disaster that struck Fukushima, Japan on 11 March 2011. Representatives of the Fukushima Prefectural Government attended the opening of the garden, which is maintained by the Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea.
