EDITORS COMMENTS
Panama Pacific International Exposition, San Francisco: A Glimpse into the Japanese Tea Garden and its Occupant in 1915 This evocative photograph captures the serene beauty of the Japanese Tea Garden within the Panama Pacific International Exposition held in San Francisco, California, in 1915. The Exposition, also known as the Pan Pacific International Exposition or the Panama-California Exposition, was a world's fair held to celebrate the opening of the Panama Canal and the progress of the United States in the aftermath of the devastating 1906 San Francisco earthquake. The Japanese Tea Garden, a popular attraction at the Exposition, showcases the rich cultural heritage of Japan. The garden's occupant, dressed in traditional Japanese attire, adds an authentic touch to the scene. The serene pond, adorned with colorful koi fish, reflects the vibrant autumn foliage and the elegant teahouse in the background. The garden's intricate design, with its winding paths, stone lanterns, and delicate blossoms, embodies the harmony and tranquility that defined Japanese gardens. The 1910s were a time of cultural exchange and exploration, and the Japanese Tea Garden at the Panama Pacific International Exposition was a testament to this spirit. The garden, which still exists today, has become a cherished piece of San Francisco's history and a symbol of the enduring friendship between the United States and Japan.
