Ryoanji Temple is located in the northern part of Kyoto City.
The temple is famous for its garden of 15 stones,strangely enough, all of which cannot be seen at once.
The stones are arranged so that not all can be seen at once, to represent that humans are not perfect.

In 1975, Queen Elizabeth visited here, making it world famous.

In April, cherry blossoms bloom in this garden, creating a beautiful sight.
Ryoanji Temple is famous in Kyoto for its cherry blossoms, which attract many tourists.

Inside the temple, there is a stone wash basin presented by Mito Komon.
(Mito Komon was a man who once traveled all over Japan and remains a popular figure.)
