Very interesting. I was surprise they didn't have any of the so called Japanese gardens we have. The sand and rock with patterns in the sand that represent different things. How about the little ponds with stepping stones? or are they mainly in the private homes.
ReplyDeleteI do see that water is very important to their landscaping. Do you get any ideas when you look around? Always take pictures of something you like, because you will never remember exactly what it looked like. I see you have a cut-out of Danny's back also!

The rocks and the sand are a zen garden. I think we may find those at places like the Imperial Palace, but I haven't seen any yet. People here don't have yards, so their gardens consist of plants in pots.
ReplyDeleteI don't think Danny has a thing with taking pictures of me with trees. I think I tell him to do it. Maybe it started from my senior picture when I am sitting in the tree...
Very nice pics.
ReplyDeleteIt looks like very pretty gardens
