            豊臣秀吉の妻　ねね終焉の地
京都　東山　圓徳院　北庭

location : Kyoto Entoku-in temple

Entoku-in is a sub-temple of Kodaiji Temple 高台寺 built by Nene,who was well known as Kitano Mandokoro (wife of Toyotomi Hideyosni) to mourn for her husband's death in 1605. Then her Kesho-goten Palace (the dressing palace ) and the front garden of the palace was relocated to the temple from Fushimi Castle ,and served as the residence.

 She spent her last year and passed away here...

The garden ( the North Garden) is said to be  created by Kentei賢庭who was called "the best rock work expert in Japan"  in 400 years ago ,and then many Samurais contributed big stones for making her garden. Later was amended by Kobori Ensyu 小堀遠州.

This garden  ( the North Garden) is known as a representative Momoyama period Karesansui garden ( dry landscape garden) **which is retaining the original form of Momoyama Style constructed with strong stone foundation , and has been designated a national scenic spot.
( ** properly speaking, a kind of mixed style garden with dry landscape style枯山水 and Chisen-kaiyu style 池泉回遊式(stroll style ) garden )

Thank you for your interest :)
