First opened in 1967 and then donated to the city of Buenos Aires in 1979 (on the centenary of the arrival of Argentina’s first Japanese immigrants), Jardín Japonés makes a peaceful rest stop. Inside there’s a Japanese restaurant along with lovely ponds filled with koi and spanned by pretty bridges. Japanese culture can be experienced through occasional exhibitions and workshops on ikebana, haiku, origami, taiko (Japanese drumming) and other events.
