14 reviews of Ryoan-ji Temple

Ryoan-ji

Ryoan-ji Temple of the Peaceful Dragon is a Zen temple situated in the city of Kyoto, and was created by the school of the Rinzai Myoshinji. In this temple there is one of the Zen gardens which is one of the most famous gardens in Japan. The creator of that garden left no explanation of its meaning, which has been a real mystery throughout its history. There are 15 rocks of different sizes and shapes, no matter what your position is, you can see all 14 of them without any being hidden.
