The worked stone bridge on the east side of the Shokintel has a length of about 5.96 meter, width of about 0.70 meters and thickness of about 0.36 meters. When its architectural structure is considered, the stone bridge might appear to be a straight line that is somewhat too strong for a guiding path to a tea garden which should be very natural. Actually, without being at all unnatural, it harmonizes well with spatial composition of the garden architecture. 2, record 1, English, - garden%20architecture

In the garden architecture of Katsura Rikyu, the main building of the Shokintei and its enclosure have an important significance, just as in the case of the Shoin. It can be said that the character of Katsura Rikyu's entire garden is represented in the structural design of this building and its garden. 3, record 1, English, - garden%20architecture

On distingue différentes architectures de jardin : le jardin à l'anglaise : s'inspire des jardins orientaux dits paysagés; dans ce jardin, on trouve de grandes surfaces engazonnées sur un terrain vallonné où coulent parfois des petits cours d'eau; des bouquets d'arbres arrêtent l'œil; des trouées dans les massifs laissent échapper quelques perspectives; le jardin à l'italienne : jardin en terrasses garnies de balustrades, de perrons, de sculptures, de fontaines; des places ombragées permettent de se reposer de l'ardeur du soleil; [...] les fleurs prennent une place peu importante mais l'eau et le feuillage des arbustes persistants assurent à ce jardin raffinement et élégance; le jardin à la française : ici tout est symétrique; la végétation est basse, groupée en parterres, terrasses; des petites bordures de buis encadrent des scènes florales parfaites, géométriques ou légumières [...] 2, record 1, French, - architecture%20des%20jardins

L'architecture des jardins recèle un écueil particulier qui rompt, sur le terrain, les proportions données au dessin. Ce sont les déformations de la perspective avec lesquelles il faut parfois tricher. 1, record 1, French, - architecture%20des%20jardins
