Exploring Entsu-ji Temple’s Zen Garden in Kyoto | Japanese Garden Tour 2024 (4K HD)
Explore the serene beauty of Entsu-ji Temple’s Zen Garden in Kyoto, Japan, filmed in stunning 4K HD.
Join us on a peaceful journey through one of Kyoto’s most iconic Japanese gardens, featuring the temple’s famous dry landscape garden and borrowed scenery. This tranquil spot offers a perfect example of traditional Japanese garden design, where simplicity and nature come together in harmony.
During my September 2024 trip to Kyoto, I had the privilege to visit Entsu-ji, which is known for its stunning Zen garden. While photography and video are not permitted in most areas of the temple, the dry landscape garden is a photographer’s dream. Be sure to respect the rules and only take photos or videos of the garden itself.
In this video, you’ll discover the intricate details of the Zen garden and learn how its design principles reflect Japanese cultural values such as balance, tranquility, and connection to nature. If you’re passionate about Japanese gardens and design, this video is a must-watch.
