The Huntington Chinese Garden - Garden of Flowing Fragrance

👍👍 This place is incredible! I’m so blown away by the size of the Chinese garden and the details of the landscaping. This is probably the best Chinese garden I’ve visited outside of China. After showing my family in China these pictures, they all had thought I took a trip back to China! Needless to say...
