Mulan Vs Morakami

Decent Essays
Can you imagine the a real life version of the garden in Disney’s Mulan?

The Morakami Museum and Japanese Garden offers a chance to experience the authenticity and beauty that comes with Japan's culture.

It is the perfect place to be on a nice seventy-degree South Florida day.

A stroll through the gardens can lead to a lunch of fresh, delicious sushi.

"I went with my friends to Morakami over summer. We liked the gardens and the openness of it. One of my friends likes photography, and he loved taking pictures of all the cool flowers," Marcos Munoz, senior, said.

Established in 1977, Morakami has aimed to inspire, educate and entertain its guests. The Yamato-Kan is the original museum building, which was modeled after Japanese villas.
