"The Japanese Tea Garden is one of the most iconic features of San Antonio's sprawling Brackenridge Park, which is also home to the renowned San Antonio Zoo and the Sunken Garden amphitheater. The garden is constructed on donated lands from an abandoned mining quarry in the region and was developed between 1917 and 1918 by City Parks Commissioner Ray Lambert, featuring a Japanese-style pagoda, stone arch bridges, a 60-foot waterfall, and an island within a lily pond area. Today, the National Register of Historic Places-listed garden has been fully renovated into a year-round attraction overseen by the City of San Antonio, which is open to the public each day from dawn to dusk."
