Real Japanese Gardens Details

Tokyo-based garden designer Keizo HAYANO and German garden designer Jenny FEUERPEIL write short eBooks about Japanese garden culture. They focus on providing authentic information in combination with a great number of quality pictures at an affordable price. Providing reliable information has the highest priority for the team. Before writing the eBook, both garden designers visit the garden and take pictures of the garden and its features. Up to 80% of the research is done using Japanese resources (books, journals and interviews)."We want to show the world what real Japanese gardens look like. This is why we named the project Real Japanese Gardens." said Keizo Hayano. "Of course, everyone loves Kyoto's famous gardens like the Golden Pavilion or the rock garden Ryoan-ji. We want to build on that interest and introduce lesser-known Zen gardens as well as secret and private gardens to a wider audience.""Before I came to Japan as a garden apprentice in 2010," said Jenny Feuerpeil, "I found it hard to find reliable information about Japanese gardens or traditional garden techniques like stone setting. Now I am researching and writing the books I wish I had when I started my journey. It is a dream job!""We love Japanese Gardens. And we want the world to know more about Real Japanese gardens."
