Features of Zen Rock Garden style

Quick answer:

Zen Rock Gardens, also known as Karesansui in Japanese, are a traditional form of Japanese rock garden design. They are characterized by simplicity, the use of natural stone, raked sand or pebbles to represent water, and often incorporate a few carefully placed trees. These gardens emphasize the natural beauty of the elements and the Japanese concept of wabi-sabi, which finds beauty in imperfection, impermanence, and the cycles of nature.
