Gardens in traditional Japanese style

Japanese gardens are seen at Buddhist temples, Shinto shrines and even at private houses throughout Japan. There’s something special about Japanese gardens. You will experience peacefulness and a sense of sanctuary as soon as you enter a garden. There are temples in the middle of big cities, and these are good places to visit if you want to escape from a hectic life and retreat to a sanctuary. Japanese gardens usually have a pond and you see Koi in different colors and sizes.
