The vertical landscape of a dry landscape garden can have real water

Quick answer:

In Zen gardens, the concept of 'dry landscape' typically refers to gardens that use carefully raked sand or gravel to represent water, mountains, and other elements. However, it is not uncommon for some Zen gardens to include actual water features, such as small ponds or streams, to enhance the experience and create a more naturalistic feel. These water elements can add a dynamic element to the otherwise static and symbolic landscape.
