Ginkakuji Garden 2
Posted by Daryl Johnson (Farnham, United Kingdom) on 30 October 2008 in Lifestyle & Culture.
The building in the background is the actual 'ginkakuji' - 'temple of the silver pavilion'. Why isn't it silver..? Ah, now there's a story...
Although I'm now in England, this blog will still feature photos from Japan for the foreseeable future.
I apologise in advance if I'm tardy with commenting on your blogs or returning comments during the week... I will get to you though!

nicely framed with the trees, I would love to see these gardens someday, they seem to be so beautifully layed out from your captures

an other point of view of your last pic, really different but same interest mainly by the dynamic movement of the tree

Nice garden. I like the tree in the front. And the house. And your perspective. *smile*
