I disagree, actually. I think Ryoan-ji should be merged with this article. Exploding Boy 16:26, Nov 26, 2004 (UTC)

[edit] Kanji

Just for the record, I went to Ryōanji this afternoon and while the maps of the area all use 竜安寺, the signs at the actual temple all say 龍安寺。I was surprised myself. Anyway, that's why I added the other writing since both are apparently acceptable. --Do Not Talk About Feitclub (contributions) 12:32, 16 October 2005 (UTC)

Added details from the Nature article. Facinating, I wish I could link their figure showing the tree. (gradd001) 9:26, March 12 2006
