Hello Friends,
As many of you like gardens and gardening, today I will show you Japanese gardens.
I went three times in Japan, the first time I was 19.
I had been « Au pair » in England and met a Japanese girl whose name is Masako at the language school.
She came to stay in France with my family before she left, and two years later I could buy a plane ticket with the money I earned with my summer job in a bank.
The second time was for my 60 th birthday, my children bought me a ticket and I payed the stay. I chose to stay in a Japanese typical home. With Airbnb. I stayed with a treacher at Kyoto university.
This time I stayed in Kyoto, the first time I stayed in Tokyo for two months.
And the third time I went with my husband in kyoto and Nara.
I love Japanese gardens, I find them very peaceful and relaxing places. They have no flowers, but different kinds of trees , different shapes and greens.
The water is part of the garden and bridges ( like in Monet’s garden in Giverny)
Those we visit were garden shrines or temples.
I hope you enjoyed the visit!
