Panoramic view from the Symbolic Mountain Lookout at the Japanese Gardens, Cowra, NSW, Australia, 22 September, 2006. Japanese gardens (日本庭園, nihon teien), that is, gardens in the traditional Japanese style, can be found at private homes, in neighborhood or city parks, and at historical landmarks, such as Buddhist temples and old castles. Some of the Japanese gardens most famous in the West, and within Japan as well, are dry gardens or rock gardens, known as karesansui.
