Gardenvisit Editorial
This was the garden of a monastery, dedicated to the worship of Buddha Amida (Amitabha), and designed to recreate paradise on earth. It is a Pure Land garden. The water, a treasure pond, relates to garden pavilions connected by roofed corridors. It is assumed there was a bridge to an island. The architecture shows a strong Chinese influence. The garden character is typical of the Heian Period.

The museum beside the monastery has a modern landscape design. The monastery itself has a wonderful building in a not-so-wonderful setting.
