Natural Garden

The natural garden has the power to heal us in all four seasons. This garden was created in the Edo period and contains many of the common flowers and plants found in Koyasan. Japanese andromeda and rhododendrons are a few of the various flowers that grow around the pond. The six trees of Koyasan are represented in the courtyard: Japanese cedar, Hinoki cypress, Japanese Red Pine, Tsuga (Hemlock fir), Fir and Koya-maki tree (Umbrella Pine).
