Welcome to the Kelowna-Kasugai Sister City Association (KKSCA)

Located off Queensway Avenue immediately east of City Hall, Kasugai Gardens offers a tranquil environment featuring traditional elements of a Japanese garden. The landscape features stone walkways, lanterns, pine trees, and a pond with a waterfall. The gardens were completed in 1987 to symbolize the friendship between Kasugai in Japan and Kelowna, sister cities since 1981.


Ever thought of learning Japanese but didn’t know where to start?
