The Japanese Friendship Garden is a walled section of Kelley Park in San Jose California USA. Dedicated in October 1965 it is patterned after Japan’s famous Korakuen Garden in Okayama (one of San Jose’s sister cities) and spans six acres. Its three main ponds were stocked with koi sent from Okayama in 1966. The ponds are at different elevations in the park and are inter-connected by streams.
