借景
Shakkei
周囲の風景、主に山や樹木を、背景として庭の一要素とすること。
"Shakkei" (Borrowed Scenery) is Japanese traditional way to design a garden.
It makes use of surrounding landscapes such as a distant mountain or trees as a background to complete a view of a garden.
向こうに見える山は比叡山。
ここはビルや電柱に遮られない、純粋な借景を残す稀少な場所。
The mountain you see over there is Mount-Hiei.
Here is one of few places where remains pure Shakkei,
which is not obscured by any electric cables or high buildings.
