Zen Gardens

Originally created by Buddhist Zen monks as meditation aids, Kyoto houses some of the most authentic examples of those dry gardens.

Discover the relaxing atmosphere and the meaning of rocks and gravel during this half day tour.

 

Practical:

In good Kyotanuki habit, we will visit the lesser know gems, as silence and quietness are essential to zen.

You’ll learn about the dry gardens, their meaning and symbolism, but also about the Buddhist zen monks, what they really do and how they live.
