Today I went to the Jardín Japonés (Japanese Garden) in Palermo after class. Palermo is a barrio in the city. I decided today that I really like Palermo because there are so many parks and green spaces. It is such a beautiful part of the city because the green adds so much life to it. There are also a lot of really cool (and huge) monuments decorating the busy streets.

The Jardín Japonés was so cool. It was like a Japanese oasis in the middle of the city. There was a lake filled with huge colorful carp. My favorite part was the bright red bridges that criss-crossed the lake. Throughout the park there were all different kinds of Japanese flora and sculptures that represented their culture. It was cool to see all the different Japanese elements of the park because it’s not something you see a lot of in Buenos Aires, despite the large Japanese population. There was also a Japanese restaurant, but we did not go inside because it is apparently pretty pricey. Maybe next time I will buy Japanese food and bring it into the park so I can enjoy all the aspects of Japanese culture!
