Modern Stone Circle / Monolith in Honshū

One of sub-temples in Daitoku-ji (大徳寺) zen temples complex. Its dry landscape garden contains a line of stones, including tortoise and crane (both are symbols of longevity) shaped stone settings and a stone bridge, that seems like an alignment.

Disappointingly, this temple is usually closed to the public and even on the special open days, photography is prohibited.
