The autumnal garden of Tokei-ji temple



The cool and clear sunlight unique to autumn might be playing the leading role in the calm beauty of this simple but elegant garden.

The bunch of small toy-like flowers of wild chrysanthemum and the vivid red fruits of Manryo (Ardisia crenata) are tasteful and pleasant ornaments added to this scene of quiescence.
