Zen retreats focus on tranquility and harmony with nature. To create this calming atmosphere, use minimalist landscape design elements such as gravel pathways, bamboo fences, and strategically placed water features, like koi ponds or fountains. When selecting plants, consider using evergreens, Japanese maple trees, and ornamental grasses that provide year-round interest while maintaining a serene aesthetic. Decor ideas for Zen gardens can include stone lanterns, meditation areas with comfortable seating, and subtle lighting to enhance the peaceful ambiance.
