Kyoto, Japan - Garden designed by the tea master Sen no Rikyu: Daitokuji Temple Koumein

After strolling around Nishijin, we came to #Daitoku-ji, one of the five mountains in Kyoto. There are more than ten temples of various sizes in the area, almost all of which charge admission, and some are open for a limited time. It is a famous place for viewing cherry blossoms and red maple leaves. Because it is close to the South Gate, I chose #Huangmeiyuan nearby. After checking the information, I found that it was only open in spring and autumn. I decided to step inside and take a look before making a decision. As soon as I took a look, I was amazed by the new green maple leaves all over the garden. The sun shines on the green maple leaves and moss, and the shadows of the trees are scattered around. It is so quiet and beautiful. It must be a fairyland! Without saying a word, I immediately bought a ticket and went in. As expected, the green maples in the Huangmei Courtyard, combined with the Japanese garden and dry landscape, created a unique artistic conception, with a touch of Zen and elegance. Huangmeiyuan has a great history. It was designed by the tea master Sen no Rikyu in his later years. The courtyard is called the Straight Courtyard. The winding wooden corridor connects the academy Jikyuken, the dry landscape, the Poto-tei, and Takeno Joou's The teahouse #Zu Mengxuan has a very literati and elegant style. Sitting on the red carpet seats in the courtyard, looking at the blue sky and white clouds, admiring the new green maples and dry landscape, it is really a beautiful sight! You bet on the right thing. #日本探店 #京都景点 #Daitokuji Temple Huangmeiyuan #Sen no Rikyu
