  In the year 2008, I also went to the Brooklyn Botanic Garden. This year, from my own point of view, the park has changed as much as my life has changed. Needless to say, I enjoyed as much as I did back then .

Japanese Hill-and-Pond Garden

"The Japanese Hill-and-Pond Garden is one of the oldest and most visited Japanese-inspired gardens outside Japan. It is a blend of the ancient hill-and-pond style and the more recent stroll-garden style, in which various landscape features are gradually revealed along winding paths. The garden features artificial hills contoured around a pond, a waterfall, and an island while carefully placed rocks also play a leading role. Among the major architectural elements of the garden are wooden bridges, stone lanterns, a viewing pavilion, the Torii or gateway, and a Shinto shrine."

Rose Garden Overview

It was so nice to sit here and watch the Rose Garden. This place is very peaceful and refreshing. It's always good to sit for a while, observe, and feel the wind blowing!



Native Flora Garden

This was the gift Life gave me here! This butterfly posed there just to be seen. Previously in this blog, I published what butterflies represent. In addition, people who know why I like butterflies and what they mean to me will understand why I say this one was a gift from Life to me!
 

This was another place... I just don't remember what the name was!!


Lilly Pool Terrace

I mentioned above that you would see these lilies again. When I arrived, these lilies were wide open... And two hours later:

Museum of Modern Arts (MoMA)


We were lucky to visit this Museum together with Adrian Gómez who is a very well know artist in Costa Rica. He described every detail of each piece or art and explained the technique used in each sculpture and each painting











Another dream come true!!!










This one was a surprise. I think the painter was thinking about me when he painted this one!

















When I was observing this Monet, I just couldn't believe my eyes
