Jisso-in

Jisso-in - The stone garden of Jisso-in has a number of modern features that make it unique among this collection of Zen gardens. Containing the customary pebbles of similar gardens, the Jisso-in garden contains large moon shaped stones that appear as though they are submerged below the gravel and moss surface. Looking like giant ocean waves, these man-made stones rise up alongside the garden’s mossy island and formed stones. The garden has a surrounding wall that is lined with trees, and its unusual elements contribute to the garden’s compelling elegance.
