Generally in Japan,the types of traditional style gardens can be roughly classified into three types : ① Chisen Kaiyu style garden (a style of Japanese Garden with paths around a central pond,streams and springs) ②Karesansui Garden ( Dry Landscape Garden) ③Roji Garden ( Tea cult Garden, - the garden for the traditional Japanese tea ceremony)

Daiho-in :
Daiho-in is one of the thirty eight sub-temples of Myosinji temple,which is within the large Myosinji complex( Rinzai Sect) in north eastern Kyoto..This temple was founded in 1662 as the family temple of Sanada clan (the load of Matsushiro Provience)by Nobuyuki Sanada’s 真田信之granddaughter Osahime長姫. She received his will and difined Tandou Souren 淡道宗廉 as the first chief priest of this temple.
The main feature of this temple is a Roji garden( tea garden or teacult garden) .It’s consisted of three parts‐the inner path garden 内露地,the outer path garden外露地 ,and central path garden中露地, and borrowed Narabigaoka landscape and it’s said that it represents Pure Load of Buddhism.
The left side is a tea ceremony house (hidden)called Yurin-ken 有隣軒which comes from Rongo,the Analects of Confucius.
The bamboo gate in the bushes is the bamboo gate (Chumon Gate) leading to the inner garden.
This temple regularly open to public ,and then we can enjoy the scene lying before us like this and have a cup of green tea and a piece of sweet. :)
Nobuyuki Sanada is featured in the 2016 NHK Histrical Drama 'Sanadamaru 真田丸’
