At Ichijō Keikan Sansō, a photograph capturing the impression of "Flower Hand-Watering (right half from directly above)."

This photograph captures the flower-adorned water basin near the entrance of Ichijō Keikan Sansō from directly above, with focus on the right half of the composition. The delicate colors of the flowers and the reflections on the water surface create a beautiful, soothing space. Located in Nikaidō, Kamakura, the Ichijō Keikan Mountain Villa was built in the early Edo period by Prince Ichijō Keikan, son of Emperor Go-Yōzei. Buildings and gardens relocated from Kyoto preserve its historic charm. During the rainy season, hydrangeas stand out against moss-covered stone pavements, while refreshing flower hand-watering soothes the spirit. In autumn, vibrant autumn leaves spread across the landscape, enveloping visitors in quiet wonder.
