Peaceful boat on a pond with red bridge

I was thinking about Japan this morning so I thought I would post a picture from a trip there a few years ago. This is a pond at the SHUKKEIEN garden in Hiroshima. It must be one of the most peaceful places in the world. When I was there it was very hot, which I was able to tolerate, but because of that there really were not too many people in the garden. If you travel to Hiroshima, put this place on your list of places to see!
