Daitoku-ji Temple | The Heart of Zen Buddhism in Kyoto
If Buddhism has taken multiple forms depending on latitude, minds and wills, in Japan, it has found its purest form with Zen Buddhism, which emphasises emptiness, both as a spiritual and an aesthetic principle.
Kyoto's famous Daitoku-ji Temple and its surrounding Zen gardens are like a hymn to a world that mediates between the secular and the sacred and the visible and the invisible, in a supreme quest for harmony and beauty.
