The garden was built in the middle Edo period fronting a storage building and the temple study. The study looks out on a koi pond and across to a beautiful rustic teahouse. A narrow stone slab bridge crosses the pond diagonally leading the the teahouse.

Without a speck of dust's being raised, the mountains tower up; without a single drop's falling, the streams plunge into the valley.   Muso Soseki   Ode to the Dry Landscape   1275-1351
