Ryoanji temple in Kyoto.


Pond of Ryoanji temple. I heard this temple is famous for only garden. But this pond is beautiful!
This is rock garden. It's one of famous karesansui garden. The main elements of karesansui are rocks and sand. I just sit and saw this garden with my family. Suddenly many Japanese childrens came to this place. They were quite loud. After they left this temple, I could enjoy garden again.
The steps to the main building. I walked these steps and forest.
The front gate of Ryoanji. I just arrived here before they closed. So, I and my family had to look quickly. Though, it was calm and good place to take a rest.
