From the brochure: This simple yet remarkable garden measures only 25 meters from east to west and 10 meters from south to north. No trees are to be seen; only 15 rocks and white gravel are used in the garden. This rock garden, surrounded by low earthen walls, may be thought of as the quintessence of Zen art. The walls are made of clay boiled in oil. As time went by, the peculiar design was made of itself by the oil that seeped out.
It is up to each visitor to find out for himself what this unique garden signifies. The longer you gaze at it, the more varied your imagination becomes.
