Japanese Garden after the leaves fall, late November

The early afternoon was sunny in the run-up to the Thanksgiving week 2019 in Grand Rapids.
The visitors who came to the Meijer Gardens and Sculpture Park were rewarded with this view atop the viewing point at the Japanese Garden. (3 images stitched into panorama).

The monthly Sunday afternoon visits to the Japanese Teahouse run from May to October normally. So by now the access paths and the building itself is closed off until 2020.
