Shofuso Japanese House and Gardens
The experience Sontag strongly promotes in her essay of one without judgment or over explanation is one I had in our “Magic Gardens” visit. I had few expectations and knew little about the garden prior to the visit and did not feel the need to interpret but rather simply naturally experience and enjoy it. For a self-assigned trip, I would seek out a similar place like Shofuso Japanese House and Gardens. From the pictures I’ve seen online, the gardens look like a perfect place to relax and reflect without the need to analyze.
