「妙喜寺」 山口県 /“Myoki-ji Temple" Yamaguchi Pref

「妙喜寺」 山口県山口市

妙喜寺はもともと同じ山口市内の雪舟庭で有名な常栄寺の場所にあったお寺です。その後、紆余曲折を経て妙喜寺は現在の場所に再興しましたが、なんとこちらにも伝雪舟作の庭があるのです。地形的には常栄寺と似ており雪舟が庭を作りそうな場所です。しかし現在では護岸がコンクリートで固められてしまっています。据えられている景石は風情のあるものばかりなので雪舟作もやぶさかではないかも？と思えてくるのに本当に残念なかぎりです。

"Myoki-ji Temple" Yamaguchi City, Yamaguchi Prefecture

Myoki-ji Temple was originally located in the same place as Jyoei-ji Temple, famous for its Sesshu Garden, before it was built, but it was moved to another location. After many twists and turns, Myoki-ji Temple was rebuilt in its current location, and it also has a garden said to have been created by Sesshu. The topography is similar to Jyoei-ji Temple, making it the perfect place for Sesshu to create a garden. Unfortunately, the bank is now concreted. The landscape stones installed there are all very tasteful, so it seems like they could have been created by Sesshu, and it's a real shame.
