The Furman University Asian Garden is an Asian-style garden located on the campus of Furman University at 3300 Poinsett Highway, Greenville, South Carolina.[1][2] It is open daily without charge.

Furman University has a long-term exchange program with Kansai Gaidai University in Hirakata, Osaka, Japan. The Japanese garden reflects this relationship, and includes a small teahouse, and a Hei-Sei-Ji temple that was originally standing in Nagoya.[3]
