| 説明 | The Royanji Temple contains a simple rock garden, consisting only of white sand and fifteen rocks, laid out at the end of the 15th century, is acknowledged to be one of the masterpieces of Japanese culture. Its simple beauty will inspire philosophical meditation.The Rock Garden: This simple yet remarkable garden measures only twenty-five meters from south to north. The rectangular Zen garden is completely different from the gorgeous gardens of court nobles constructed in the Middle Ages. No trees are to be seen; only fifteen rocks and white gravel are used in the garden. It is up to each visitor to find out for himself what is this unique garden signifies. The longer you gaze at it, the morevaried your imagination becomes. This rock garden surrounded by low earthen walls may be thought of as the quintessence of Zen art. The walls are made of clay boiled in oil. As time went by, the peculiar design was made of itself by the oil that seeped out. This garden of worldwide fame is said to have been laid out by Soami, a painter and gardener who died in 1525. |
