This name he received because of Ashikaga Yoshimitsu - ruler of Japan (XIVvek), who was very fond of sitting on it, to enjoy the scenery of the garden.
Today, to get acquainted with the beautiful songs of the garden can be a walk through the garden on a paved road.

Rocks islands resembling a ship sailing to the island paradise, divide the surface of the pond. This sight always makes visitors Sayhodzi stop for a minute and not only admire these landscapes, but also to experience the extraordinary light filtered through the leaves and soak in emerald moss or brownish surface, enriching, so its texture.
