The Japanese Garden (including the Koi Pond area) is now accessible to all Dubuque Arboretum & Botanical Gardens visitors, with paving from the zigzag bridge to the moon bridge and up to the Japanese Garden parking lot. Those with strollers, wheelchairs, or other limitations are now able to easily access and enjoy the Japanese Garden and Koi Fish Pond.
WITH APPRECIATION: for a generous grant from the Dubuque Racing Association and Burnell and Karen Smith who provided the 25% match to complete the funding of this project.
