San Antonio’s Japanese Garden
On a recent trip to San Antonio, Lonn Taylor dropped by the Japanese Garden in Brackenridge Park. Today on the Rambling boy, Lonn tells us the history of the garden -- how it changed hands from the Japanese Jingu family to the Chinese Wu family, and how its beloved status saved it from commercial development.
