This beautiful wooden arched bridge graces the Japanese Garden and tea house at Huntington Gardens and Library in San Marino, California.
Encompassing about 130 acres, the botanical gardens feature living collections in 16 stunning themed gardens with more than 83,000 living plants including rare and endangered species, and a laboratory for botanical conservation and research.
In 1903 Henry E. Huntington (1850–1927) purchased the San Marino Ranch, a working ranch about 12 miles from downtown Los Angeles with citrus groves, nut and fruit orchards, alfalfa crops, a small herd of cows, and poultry. His superintendent, William Hertrich (1878–1966), was instrumental in developing the various plant collections that comprise the foundation of The Huntington's botanical gardens. The property—originally nearly 600 acres—today covers 207 acres, 130 of which are open to visitors.
