Zen
I was fortunate to have a trip to Japan. Tokyo is a different but same city as New York. Kyoto is a small city filled with hints of traditional style and culture. Beautiful nature landscapes built for the eye and sooth the soul are tucked into the cityscape and accompany each shrine or temple. Nature’s beauty taken to a new level. Man making nature bend to his aesthetic. I like and appreciate the art form of pruning, rock placement, water use. Yet nature does a fantastic job on its own. Nature vs nurture method of gardening. https://intosaihoji.com/en/saihoji/
