When you take a stroll along The Woodlands Waterway in Texas, you might come across a hidden gem (a truly special one) that is worth exploring.
I am talking about the beautiful and breathtaking koi garden, nestled in the heart of the Town Center, which is the downtown area of The Woodlands. In fact, it is located just across The Woodlands Waterway Marriott and Convention Center.
For context, a koi pond is a traditional feature of Japanese gardens. They are often prized for their calming environment, as well as their beauty and serenity.
The most important feature of these gardens is the koi fish, a carp bred especially in Japan for large size. These fish are well-known for their distinct colors and patterns. The most common colors include orange, white, black and gold.
According to The Woodlands website, the pond consists of 60,000 gallons of water and exotic plants, such as bamboo. The sound of the water provides the perfect ambiance for relaxation and reflection.
In addition, the koi garden provides the perfect backdrop for memorable photos, especially engagement and family photos.
As a reminder, feeding the koi fish is prohibited to keep them healthy. However, caretakers typically feed the koi on Saturdays at 1 p.m., according to The Woodlands website.
Overall, I highly encourage you to visit the koi garden to connect with nature and to enjoy the calming landscape. It also provides the ideal environment for mindfulness and even meditation.
