Ryoanji is a Zen temple that gained international fame after a visit by Queen Elizabeth II. It is best known for its Hōjō garden, a rock garden that embodies the essence of Zen aesthetics. The simplicity of the garden exudes a refined wabi-sabi atmosphere, drawing visitors into a tranquil and meditative experience.
Throughout the year, Ryoanji offers beautiful seasonal scenery—cherry blossoms in spring, water lilies in summer, vibrant autumn foliage, and a serene winter landscape.
