This is a gorgeous, thoughtful memorial to the Chinese population of old Astoria. The care that went in to the informative plaques truly shows how the Astoria community has grown and accepts blame for their dishonorable acts against the Chinese in times past. This was not only a stunning garden to behold and enjoy on a peaceful afternoon, but an educational one. I will continue to bring my friends and family to this garden to teach them about a small part of Oregon history.

Neat find while wandering through downtown Astoria. Cool sculptures. Calm space. Would probably be good for mediation

Beautiful tribute and lessons displayed in the architecture. Plantings are delightful. Read, reflect, accept and grow.

Low maintenance park that is fine to walk through, but provides no space for something as simple as a lunch. Stone benches, but no tables or facilities.This is a basic guilty white people park. Sorry we were mean to the Asian immigrants!Local homeless shelter is nearby, so avoid at dawn and dusk during the cold months.

Nice place to meditate, calmly walk, then get a beer at the American Legion next door.

Quiet place to just sit and relax. Had really good architecture and history

Very beautiful and peaceful.

Great experience. A nice little place in the middle of the city. Amazingly charming and peaceful. Worth the visit. Great explanations by the guide.

Very peaceful...in honor of the Chinese cannery workers

A beautiful structure and art work. A great place to sit and relax....pure beauty.

Very peacefull and thoughtfull

Interesting installation in memory of historic Chinese family members in Astoria. Small, but nice green space in a quiet part of town.

Not sure how this is called a park ... but sure, its nice to stroll around a bit and sit on one of the benches to contemplate life for a little while. Dont expect tranquility and silence though! This is a couple thousand square feet rectangle in a relative busy section of downtown Astoria with a road at two of its sides.

Neat little sculpture garden!

Very nice park to visit on a dry day or a nice place to enjoy a good book. It is a memoriam to many Chinese workers that contributed to building and working in Astoria back in Shanghai days. For more history please also visit the Astoria heritage museum as well as the Astoria Maritime museum.

Amazing and beautiful such a great spot downtown to just sit and relax and a night it is lighted and beautiful in a completely different way

Though not large, this is a beautiful public art installation. All the sculptures and engravings are dedicated to the Chinese population that were an integral part of Astorias growth. Well worth the visit.

Small park. Beautiful sitting area. I like to park here for the Sunday market. There was one homeless guy over flowing with his belongings, he never bothered me or my children.

Great place to visit. Wonderful views.

It was a good idea that went wrong. Most of the time it has homeless hanging around. It doesnt seem to be a safe place.

Very little park but on the weekends it is a cool place to chill and learn some history!

This is really cool and gives you some good historical perspective on the town. Will go back

Interesting spot right downtown.

Loved the carvings and the amount of information about the chinese in Astoria.

A must see while downtown. A lot of thought and work was given to make this peaceful memorial.

Great place for learning some interesting history about the great little town of Astoria!

Its small but a nice space

Its ok a little bit of Astoria history,they could have found a different location,because downtown could have used the parking. Downtown Astoria could really use a multi-level parking garage and charge a small fee to pay for construction and maintence, thats just my opinion.

This little stop in the Astoria is free and looks like a lot of people miss it when they go by. I would recommend stopping by. About a block away are the Sunday vendors.

I am on it

Beautiful installation. A great mix of mediums and materials.

Great little historical site on a prior brownfield.

Read the stories they have posted so interesting.

A concrete park is better than no park I guess! Probably better described as a plaza.

I think its great to honor those who suffered to build on what we use today. Nothing can make up for what was done but it shoud never be forgotten.

Great little park with alot of local history!

Very pretty Oriental garden honoring our Oriental citizens. It has some lovely artwork in the form of metal work, with a unique display of flowers and plants.

Its a beautiful little park

Beautiful tribute park, downtown Astoria Or.

Tranquility.

Really intersting sculpture garden. Worth a stop if youre wandering around downtown Astoria.

Great park like history of our past.

Love the designs.

Great place to stop by and have lunch. The food is excellent.

Cute little sitting area in downtown. Good walk up food nearby and plenty of Pokemon!

Really disappointing. What you see in the picture is all there is. Expected a lot more out of something with such a cool name.

Awsome place

At one time Chinese made about about 2/3 of Astorias population. The area history museums fumble on this and dont talk about it. Like it never happened. Like the laws that kept them out of jobs were never on the books. Like they never existed.But they were here. They lived here. They contributed to our society. They made this country a better place.How did they get here, where did they live, and what happened to them after they left? While these bigger questions are not answered, this exhibit does at least acknowledge that Chinese lived here, just like you and me. They suffered, they lived, and they loved, just like you and me.This corner of town is well worth a visit. A visit for more than a few minutes. A visit that allows time to contemplate and imagine what was and what could have been.

It does not belong there. A garden designed to show our appreciation for how they helped develop our area, should have been placed in proximity to where they worked and lived.

It has interesting displays, but no grass. Also has no water fountains. Its basically just a corner histoic, cultural display. No comfortable place to sit and no bathrooms.

Interesting Japanese history

Nice place to sit and relax, let the kids run around a for a bit and find some painted rocks.

It is a nice relaxing area and not too much traffic there for it being in town

A beautifully-detailed little park

Lovely art. A wonderful place of beauty. A nice place to sit and think, right in town.

Very cool garden in Astoria

Well design and tranquil. I found the garden by pure luck and enjoyed it, despite the rainy Oregon day.

Beautiful and full of history.

The quality of work done on the marble columns are worth seeing for yourself.

An open square of serenity in the middle of town, to pause, reflect, and consider. Sculptures and plaques to read concerning Chinese immigrants.

This is a nice place to sit on a sunny day. We have a local rock painting group that hide rocks at this location to be found.

A drizzly visit to Astoria didnt mar the beauty and serenity of this small urban park. The plantings are new, but will, over time, undoubtedly enhance the atmosphere of this lovely public space.

Always a relaxing place to picnic... plus it has pokestops and a pokegym

Never have I been to this place,,lol,,,so glad people think they can tell me where I ve been!

Its a pretty park downtown, No grass but a gazebo and a table

Beautiful in its simplicity and in what it represents

The waves felt good as they exploded in the janitors face.

Great place too see once fully completed.

What a beautiful garden of rememberence.

Very nice Chinese garden. Especially the writings on the iron bed.

It is there. Sit on a wall and have lunch.
