The enhanced forests of the Ginkaku-ji "Temple of the Silver Pavilion".



The Japanese garden of Ginkaku-ji include karesansui, Japanese rock gardens or Zen gardens, which are meditation gardens where white sand replaces water. You find at Ginkaku-ji there is mostly kaiyū-shiki-teien, or a stroll garden, where the visitor follows a path around the garden to see carefully composed landscapes.






The start of the garden path gives a nice view of the main entrance.

The water gently falls over the rocks below.

The moss and grass make an interesting pattern on the hillside.

Looked to be a scared old tree with a strange beauty to it.

These old trees need some support by the large bamboo poles.
