A "Byakusin" tree is a typical and essential tree of the temples of Zen Buddhism. According to the teaching of old zen teachers, the unhurried and continuous growth of a Byakusin tree symbolises the gradual and ever-progressing process of the spiritual enlightenment in Zen Buddhism.
The gate shown in this picture is a gate to one of the Zazen training facilities of this Kenchou-ji temple.
