Book ID/图书代码： 02911017C00040
English Summary/英文概要： At the heart of a Japanese garden is harmony with nature. More than simply a landscape of trees and flowering shrubs, a Japanese garden provides a place of serenity and rest, filled with peaceful spots that lend themselves to meditation and contemplation. "Japanese Gardens" celebrates and illustrates this ideal, showcasing the exquisite natural beauty of more than 20 quintessentially Japanese gardens - big and small, urban and rural, traditional and contemporary. The expert author-and-photographer team behind this book excels at capturing and explaining the essential elements and techniques that distinguish Japanese gardens from those of other countries. The featured sites range from large feudal period gardens, temple gardens and private and countryside gardens to mountain flower gardens, tea gardens and gardens devoted to miniature bonsai.

★ 日本庭园是亚洲园林艺术中的杰作。本书是一本关于日本庭园的鉴赏性图谱。既有概括性的历史演变阐释，又有不同经典园林的案例，而且这些案例几乎遍布日本全境， 绝非集中在某个日本特大城市。因此，本书特别适合去日本旅行但又不想走常规旅行线路的文艺青年。
★ 目前市面上关于日本庭园的书并不多，附以绚烂的实景摄影图片的图册更是稀缺资源。本书由日本专业摄影师掌镜，高质量摄影图片占全书的三分之二，特别便于从直观上了解日本庭园的设计元素与理念，以及欣赏。(DB)
