Japanese garden "Mu-shin" (Lešná, CZ)

in Worldmappin3 months ago (edited)

Zoos are not only about animals. The Zoo of Zlín also has a rich botanical collection and tries to combine the animal exhibits with the corresponding plants (if possible).

There is also a typical Japanese garden near the Asian exhibition. It is designed as a dry, rocky mountain garden.

Japanese gardens are characterized by moderation and orderliness. Therefore, there is not a great variety of plants, but everything is neat. Three hundred-year-old pine trees (imported from Japan) dominate the garden. One of them at the entrance has a distinctive side branch that seems to shake the visitor's hand and welcome him.

With more than 1000 m2, this Japanese garden is the largest of its kind in the Czech Republic. And what does its name Mu-Shin mean? Translated, it means "out of mind" or "without thought". It implies that the visitor should let go of everyday worries, not think about work, but relax physically and mentally and maybe even gain some energy.

Zoologická zahrada, to nejsou jen zvířata. V zoologické zahradě Zlín se nachází i bohatá botanická kolekce a snaží se o propojení expozic zvířat s odpovídající rostlinnou výsadbou (pokud je to možné).

V blízkosti asijské expozice se nachází i typická japonská zahrada. Je koncipovaná jako suchá, kamenná horská zahrada.

Pro japonské zahrady je typická střídmost a upravenost. Proto tu není velké množství různých druhů rostlin, ale všechno je úhledné. Dominantou zahrady jsou tři stoleté borovice (dovezené z Japonska). Jedna z nich u vchodu má výraznou boční větev, kterou jakoby podává ruku návštěvníkovi a vítá ho.

Tato japonská zahrada je největší svého druhu v Česku, má více než 1000 m2. A co znamená její název Mu-Shin? V překladu to znamená "mimo mysl", nebo "bez myšlenky". Naznačuje s tím, že návštěvník by se měl oprostit od každodenních starostí, nemyslet na práci, ale tělesně i duševně si odpočinout a třeba i načerpat nějakou energii.
