Landscape Garden of Saihoji Temple, Kyoto
Saiho-ji Temple, which is said to have been established by the monk Gyoki 1300 years ago, was restored and converted into a Zen temple by the monk Muso Soseki in 1339. The precincts are covered by more than 120 types of moss, resembling a beautiful green carpet - thus its other name, Kokedera Temple, which literally means Moss Temple. The garden, designated as a special place of scenic beauty, consists of a lower landscape garden surrounding a pond shaped like the Chinese character kokoro (heart), and an upper dry landscape-style rock garden built by Muso Soseki. The temple is registered as UNESCO World Heritage site as part of Historic Monuments of Ancient Kyoto

23"x19" (58x48cm) Premium Frame
FSC real wood frame with double mounted 16x12 print. Double mounted with white conservation mountboard. Frame moulding comprises stained composite natural wood veneers (Finger Jointed Pine) 39mm wide by 21mm thick. Archival quality Fujifilm CA photo paper mounted onto 1mm card. Overall outside dimensions are 23x19 inches (584x482mm). Rear features Framing tape to cover staples, 50mm Hanger plate, cork bumpers. Glazed with durable thick 2mm Acrylic to provide a virtually unbreakable glass-like finish. Acrylic Glass is far safer, more flexible and much lighter than typical mineral glass. Moreover, its higher translucency makes it a perfect carrier for photo prints. Acrylic allows a little more light to penetrate the surface than conventional glass and absorbs UV rays so that the image and the picture quality doesn't suffer under direct sunlight even after many years. Easily cleaned with a damp cloth. Please note that, to prevent the paper falling through the mount window and to prevent cropping of the original artwork, the visible print may be slightly smaller to allow the paper to be securely attached to the mount without any white edging showing and to match the aspect ratio of the original artwork.

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the breathtaking Landscape Garden of Saihoji Temple in Kyoto. Established over 1300 years ago by the monk Gyoki, this temple was later transformed into a Zen temple by the revered monk Muso Soseki. Known as Kokedera Temple or Moss Temple, it is adorned with more than 120 varieties of moss that create a mesmerizing green carpet throughout its precincts. Designated as a special place of scenic beauty, Saihoji Temple boasts two distinct garden styles. The lower landscape garden encircles a heart-shaped pond, while the upper area features a dry rock garden meticulously crafted by Muso Soseki himself. This UNESCO World Heritage site stands as an integral part of Historic Monuments of Ancient Kyoto. In this enchanting photograph captured in 2015, we are immersed in the tranquility and serenity of Saihoji's lush foliage and vibrant colors. Raindrops delicately dance upon maple trees and grasses, adding to the ethereal atmosphere. A solitary tree stands tall amidst this picturesque scene, symbolizing strength and resilience. As we gaze at this image taken by Photos from Japan, Asia and other parts of the world for Fine Art Storehouse, we are transported to another realm where nature intertwines seamlessly with spirituality. It serves as an invitation to explore not only the physical beauty but also delve into one's inner self through meditation and introspection within these sacred grounds.
