"1686 E Hayes Dr for parking!!"

"Shikantaza,” or “silent illumination” is the Japanese meditative practice in which the mind does not focus on any object, mantra, or even breath while in “zazen” or "seated position." This Japanese garden is the perfect spot to practice in this style. The garden sits on Jackson Park’s Wooded Island, at the site of the original Ho-o-den (“Phoenix'') Pavilion, gifted by Chicago’s sister city of Osaka, Japan in the late 19th century. Sadly, the pavilion was destroyed by a fire in the 1940s, but the Garden of the Phoenix serves as a beautiful, living reminder by incorporating Buddhist design elements like abundant greenery, running water, stone paths, and small bridges. One of the most remarkable meditation spots on Wooded Island is the ethereal sculpture installation Sky Landing by Yoko Ono. She dedicated this large lotus structure to the park as a “landmark for peace” and Ono asks that visitors make their own wishes for peace while visiting."

"The arched footbridge and meandering pebbled paths ask viewers to consider each feature of the garden, gifted by the government of Japan for the World’s Columbian Exposition. There’s koi swimming under the reflection of stone lanterns, a wooden, open-air pagoda, and a tree so old it’s reclining."

"This garden has also been referred to as the Garden of the Phoenix or the Osaka Garden. This garden symbolizes the mutual respect and friendship that Japan and the United States initiated more than 120 years ago. In 1893, on Jackson Park's Wooded Island, the Japanese Government built the Ho-o-den [Phoenix Temple] as its pavilion for the World's Columbian Exposition. The Ho-o-den introduces Japan's artistic heritage to Americans and remained as a gift to Chicago after the fair ended. The original pavilion had only a small garden, however, in the 1930s the newly formed Chicago Park District restored the pavilion and added a more extensive Japanese Garden. The garden has been revitalized several times throughout the 1900s, including a 1992 project that celebrated Chicago's Sister City relationship with Osaka, Japan. "

"Located in Jackson Park, the Osaka Japanese Garden is actually a remnant of the 1893 World's Columbian Exposition. START OF THE TRAIL?"
