Japanese Gardens are designed to be enjoyed throughout the year and our frosty Winter Walk is a refreshing exploration of the Fabyans' historic garden.
Fabyan staff will lead tours highlighting the 104-year-old garden's delicate beauty.
Visitors will stroll and see how snow highlights the gardens structural design features and enhances its tranquil vistas.
In addition to examining Japanese garden theory, tours will touch on the Fabyans' fascinating history and their estate, known as Riverbank.
