It was created on the initiative of Count Fritz von Hochberg in connection with the 1913 Exhibition of the Century. It was designed by the Japanese gardener Mankii Arai. After the exhibition, however, numerous details borrowed for the duration of the exhibition were taken (decisive for the Japanese founding of the garden). It wasn't until 1994 that thanks to the cooperation of the Japanese embassy, ​​prof. Ikuya Nishikawa and Nagoya gardeners have begun work to restore the garden's Japanese character. The Japanese government donated several granite lanterns from the 19th century to the Garden. It is now a living fragment of Japanese culture, unique on a European scale. A decorative main gate and a wide alley lead to the garden, which directs visitors to the central part and at the same time the biggest attraction of the garden - a beautiful, crowned with a decorative roof bridge connecting two banks of the pond. The garden was also equipped with a new island and additional paths allowing access to the pond and admiring views from the very shore. Two water cascades were also built: "male" with a fast falling curtain of water and slow flowing "female". Another interesting attraction is the southern part of the garden, referring to Japanese home gardens, with a Sukija pavilion and cut hedges and a fragment of a stone and grass garden. The hilly garden area is carved by picturesque water streams, while numerous wooden buildings give an oriental character. A valuable element is vegetation rich in Asian species.
