A pleasant stone path through northern Kyoto.

Philosopher’s Wood was originally laid out in the late17th century as a sequence of formal ponds and lakes to the west of the original Hall.

The platforms and changes in level still survive in the undergrowth, as do the skeletal

remains of the ponds and the island, still linked by ramped earthworks or dams, connected

underground by pipes. Some water still trickles through the site from the original spring-fed

supply.

A ceremony to commemorate the 2,565th anniversary of the birth of the ancient Chinese philosopher Confucius was held at the over-700-year-old Confucius Temple in Beijing, Sept 28, 2014.
