Two different geomentalities, two different gardens: the French and the Japanese cases

Description :
Japanese gardens are naturalistic and intend to give illusions that they are the beautiful spots of unspoilt nature. In contrast, the appearances of French gardens are not an imitation of nature but boldly reorganised landscapes in geometric forms. These two types represent two different sets of frames of mind regarding geographical environment.
