The Ryōan-ji garden

***Please Turn On CC For More Information

Hello friend, today I’m walking with you to The Ryōan-ji Garden. The Ryōan-ji Garden is considered one of the finest surviving examples of kare-sansui (“dry landscape”), a refined type of Japanese Zen temple garden design generally featuring distinctive larger rock formations arranged amidst a sweep of smooth pebbles (small, carefully selected polished river rocks) raked into linear patterns that facilitate meditation.

Ryoanji’s temple grounds also include a relatively spacious park area with pond, located below the temple’s main buildings. The pond dates back to the time when the site still served as an aristocrat’s villa and features a small shrine on one of its three little islands
that can be accessed over a bridge.

Hope you enjoy! ❤️ Please feel free to leave your comments blow if you have any thought to share or question to ask. I’ll be happy to chat with you : )
