✅ Highlights of Ruriko-in 🌿
Ruri Garden 🎢🌟 In spring, the lush greenery is so vibrant that it resembles a piece of emerald green jade; in autumn, the view outside the window is a canvas of golden yellow or bright red, or sometimes a mix of both. 🍃🌺Each window frame is like a painting. 🌿🖼 Wolong Garden This garden features green moss, a small stream, stepping stones, stone lanterns, azaleas, and more. 🎢🌟 It's a rich tapestry of colors, both dynamic and serene. 🍃🌺The moss-covered stone lanterns are a quintessential element of Japanese gardens, exuding an ancient and rustic beauty. 🍃 Kikugakutei The original site of Ruriko-in in Kyoto was a villa built by Tanaka Gontaro, a prominent Kyoto family and political figure. 🎢🌟 It was named "Kikugakutei" by Sanjo Sanetomi, a senior statesman of the Meiji period. 🌿 #Kyoto 🌇 #Ruriko-in 🌿
