National Bonsai & Penjing Museum

We visited the National Bonsai & Penjing Museum at the National Arboretum, reputed to hold one of the finest collections of miniature masterpieces in North America, with bonsai originating from Japan and penjing from China.

I wasn't going to include this image, but I like the scene, so here it is. Too bad I couldn't include the bonsai to the right, but just too many people around to get it.
