Sand gardens, also known as Zen gardens or dry landscapes, are minimalist outdoor spaces that use sand, gravel, rocks, and occasionally plants to create a serene and meditative environment. Typically associated with Japanese culture, these gardens often feature carefully raked patterns in the sand or gravel to symbolize rippling water, promoting contemplation and tranquility. They serve as a space for reflection and can be found in various settings, including temples and private homes. The simplicity and design are meant to evoke a sense of peace and mindfulness.

What feature distinguished zen gardens from other Japanese gardens?

Zen gardens, or "karesansui," are distinguished from other Japanese gardens by their minimalist design, which emphasizes the use of gravel, rocks, and sand to create abstract representations of nature rather than lush plant life. The arrangement of these elements is intended to promote meditation and contemplation, reflecting Zen Buddhist principles. Unlike more botanical gardens that showcase a variety of plants and water features, Zen gardens focus on simplicity and the aesthetic of space, encouraging introspection and a connection to nature through a serene environment.
