In these gardens, Soseki ingeniously arranged collections of standing stones to look like waterfalls.
Gradually, during the 15th century, small, all-mineral gardens were introduced (dry landscape gardens or kare sansui), designed to be viewed from a fixed point, unlike the strolling gardens of the past.
