An infinity pool, also known as a vanishing edge pool, is a pool that creates the illusion of extending to the horizon. It is designed with one edge of the pool appearing to drop off into the distance, often over a cliff or overlooking a landscape. Japanese infinity pools are particularly renowned for their serene and minimalist design, often incorporating natural elements like rock gardens and lush greenery. These pools are a popular feature in high-end resorts and luxury homes in Japan.
