2018年7月　相国寺にて 　梅雨の合間に訪れた相国寺、承天閣美術館への来訪の為ですが、境内も美しい松が沢山あるので、京都の街中にありますが、静かでまったりと散策するには良い所です。

Hojo Inner Garden ( Garden in Ura-Hojo)

In striking contrast to the outer garden,Hojo Innder Garden dips down in front to imply a river valley,with an artificial hill created on the opposite bank. Though located in the heart of a busy city,this garden evokes an air of remote, unpopulated mountains, a metaphor for the rich depths of Satori enlightenment.- Shokoku-ji

Shōkoku-ji was founded in the middle Muromachi period. Initial construction of the central temple structures was begun in 1383, and the entire temple complex was initially dedicated in 1392. In the eighth month of the third year of Meitoku, Yoshimitsu organized a great banquet attended by all the great officers of the Imperial court and the military leaders of that time. The pomp and ceremony of the affair was said to have equaled an Imperial event.

In 1383, the Zen master Shun’oku Myōha (春屋妙葩) (1311–1388) was designated by Yoshimitsu as founding abbot, however, Myōha insisted that the official honor be posthumously accorded to his own teacher, Musō Soseki. The formal decision to grant this posthumous honor was proclaimed in 1385.

The entire temple complex was destroyed by fire in 1394; but reconstruction financed by Yoshimitsu followed soon after. The temple complex has been rebuilt many times over the centuries, notably during the Onin War.

After the Muromachi period, Shōkoku-ji was supported by several national leaders such as Toyotomi Hideyoshi, his son Toyotomi Hideyori, and Tokugawa Ieyasu, all of whom helped finance the temple’s various reconstruction projects. Hideyori financed the 1605 reconstruction of the Hattō (Dharma Hall); and this structure, designated as an Important Cultural Property, is presently the oldest building of its type in Japan. Ieyasu donated the Sanmon (Mountain Gate) in 1609. Emperor Go-Mizunoo donated an imperial palace building to serve as the Kaisando (Founder’s Hall).

Other buildings were reconstructed during this period, but, with the notable exception of the 17th century hatto, the temple complex was largely devastated during the conflagration of 1788.

Shōkoku-ji is one of fourteen autonomous branches of the Rinzai school of Japanese Zen. Today the temple is headquarters for the Shōkoku-ji branch of Rinzai Zen, with over ninety affiliated temples, including the famous Golden Pavilion and the Silver Pavilion temples in Kyoto.

The Jotenkaku Museum is located in the premises of the temple. -wikipedia
