Cultural experience

Raking the sand garden

The pattern you have only seen from the veranda.

The experience

In the garden of the house, the rake is in your hands. Straight lines first, then the slow circles around stone. Most visitors to Kyoto only ever see a sand garden from the veranda; here you step inside it and leave a pattern of your own.
