Ryōan-ji, An iconic Zen Garden, Kyoto


This is, probably, the most world known and most iconic Zen Garden. It's located in a Zen temple in the northwest of Kyoto. 

Ryoan-ji means "the temple of the dragon at peace". The temple itself is great but the highlight for me was this garden : an image that I have seen so many times in the past as the ultimate example of sobriety, elegance and harmony.

It was a real delight to spend 30 minutes drawing this wonder.
