About this postcard

A black-and-white view of the arched moon bridge in the Oriental Tea Garden, with visitors paused on the span above a reflecting pool and dense foliage along the banks. The garden began as the Japanese Village for the 1894 Midwinter International Exposition and remained a permanent feature of Golden Gate Park. The caption uses the name Oriental Tea Garden, the garden's public name during the 1940s after the Japanese Tea Garden was renamed.
