Rock Garden Feels at Ryoanji

#springitinerary Ryoanji is the ultimate do nothing and just vibe kind of spot. Tucked away in Kyoto, this place is all about slowing down. The star of the show? That famous rock garden, just 15 rocks, perfectly placed on white gravel, and somehow it totally messes with your brain in the best way. You can’t see all the rocks at once from any angle, and it kind of becomes a little meditative mystery. The temple grounds are super peaceful too, with a big pond, trees, and moss-covered everything. It feels like stepping into a calm bubble away from the rest of the world. Even if you don’t usually care about Zen or gardens, Ryoanji has this energy that just makes you chill out. No big flashy buildings, no crowds yelling. it’s just you, some rocks, and a whole lot of stillness. Perfect place to breathe and reset for a bit.
