Modern Temple in Honshū
A sub-temple in Myōshin-ji zen temples complex. Though usually closed to public, only open once in a few years, worth to visit to appreciate its 3 philosophical gardens : the southern gardens features only white gravel, the western dry landscape garden features rocks and small trees and the courtyard garden features 7 stones in ripples of white gravel. Fortunately, photographing is welcomed in this temple.
