The above image is just one of many bridge over pond ponds. Traditionally, a koi pond is placed in the back, side, or center of a yard, with plenty of space to maneuver around or in front of. When looking for images of ponds, increasingly there are ponds you can incorporate into any space! So long as you do mind and it is safe walking over water.
