A Japanese dry garden, commonly known as a Zen garden or karesansui, is a distinctive style of Japanese garden that creates a miniature stylized landscape. It features carefully composed arrangements of rocks, water features, moss, pruned trees, and bushes, utilizing raked gravel or sand to represent ripples in water. These gardens are traditionally found at Zen Buddhist temples and are designed to aid in meditation and contemplation.
