[Customer Voice] Erin-ji

Our customer reviewed a small temple far away from the big bustling cities, which is almost not known in other countries. We introduced it in the section for Famous Gardens – Other Regions of Japan, because among Japanese this temple is indeed well known due to its extraordinary history.

I’d never heard of Erin-ji before I read this ebook. The pictures are stunning and I’m surprised the garden and temple are not more widely known because they look absolutely gorgeous! The book also had the perfect amount of history – enough to give you an understanding, but not so much that you felt overwhelmed. Gorgeous book and looking forward to reading more..and going to Erin-ji sometime, of course!

With twelve years of professional landscaping experience under her belt, Anika Ogusu is your perfect guide to the world of Japanese gardens. Her love of nature began early, in the woods near her childhood home and the garden of her grandmother’s house.
