The hypnotic sound of its layered stone waterfall sets the rhythm of the place, while huge Koi fish swim in meditative patterns in the pool below.\n\nIt is common to find the majestic resident <strong>peacocks<\/strong> wandering freely among the stone lanterns (<em>t\u014dr\u014d<\/em>).<\/strong> This garden is a sensory anchor, meticulously designed to induce a state of pure contemplation in the middle of the London metropolis.","description_body":"Entering through the main gate of <strong>Holland Park<\/strong>, you will walk among traditional English oak trees until the landscape changes abruptly. A wooden door will welcome you to <strong>Kyoto Garden.<\/strong> The route is short but dense: you will cross a small stone bridge that will leave you <strong>in front of the main waterfall<\/strong>. To your right, fine gravel paths wind between Japanese maples. Find an empty stone bench, sit down and just watch the water.
