Ryoanjo temple has a minimalist garden and a meditation space for a Kyoto Zen sect. This simple arrangement of rocks and sand is completely soul stilling, even with the crowds of nirvana seekers.

Famous for its incredibly beautiful kare-sansui dry landscape rock garden. The temple and its gardens are listed as one of the Historic Monuments of Ancient Kyoto, and as a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

The pictures don't do it justice. Zen out in the rock garden and don't be that guy loudly falling down the stairs taking pictures on his iPad while walking. (It looked pretty painful.)

One of my favorite temples in Japan. The lake outside is so serene. A definite must-see.

臨済宗妙心寺派の寺院で、山号は大雲山。藤原実能の別荘近くにあった徳大寺の地に細川勝元が寺院を建て、宝徳2年 (1450年) 義天玄承を招き、その師日峰宗舜を開山としたのが始まり。応仁の乱で焼失、徳芳禅傑が再興。方丈庭園は相阿弥作と伝えられ、石と砂だけで構成された枯山水で虎の子渡しの庭と呼ばれて有名。平成6年 (1994年)「古都京都の文化財」の一つとして世界遺産 (文化遺産) に登録されている。
