Japanese gardens have come lately to win the wide recognition of its real value in the United States and European countries. This can be said a remarkable progress in its appraisal, when we look back the fact that the Japanese things have been regarded by for eigners no more than the exotic charms. However, pursuing the fact actually, I found that the people in: European countries and Japan also are satisfied with the understanding that the things Japanese are equal to what they call Asiatic. Is this really a true estimation? Very recently, I have had a chance to visit southeast Asian conotries; Thailand, Burma, Cambodia, Vietnam, etc. In these countries of the south-east Asia, holding the important part of Asia, I could find no garden which is traditionally inherited from the national civilization. While in architectural field there are many examples built in their own national style, the gardens seen there are only those of perfect European style which the western people initiated in old days, or otherwise, there were no gardens at all belonging to buildings, I could not see even the gardens of semi-foreign style. In Japan, there exist deep relations between buddhist civilization and gardens. We may see many distinguished gardens maintained in the buddhist temples anywhere in Japan, but in south-east Asian countries, the temples seem quite unconcerned about the gardens. Considering this fact, what they think Asiatic of the Japanese gardens should not be understood in such a broad sense, I believe. We should renew our recognition that the Japanese gardens have had really special characters as limited in north-east Asia, which were introduced with the ancient Chinese civilization and thoughts and influenced by them. : Tokyo Metropolitan Educational Research Insititute.
