Suiseki
Suiseki is a Japanese word that means "water and stone". It refers to the art of finding, shaping, and appreciating beautiful rocks that have natural designs and colors.
This hobby involves collecting these rocks from natural settings like riverbeds or mountaintops, and then bringing them home to display and admire.
People who love suiseki spend a lot of time looking at the rocks and thinking about what they look like and what they could represent. Some people even see animals, people, or landscapes in the shapes and colors of the rock.
The rocks are often displayed on special stands or trays called daiza, which can be made of wood or other materials like bamboo.
Suiseki is like a treasure hunt where people search for unique and beautiful rocks, and then use their imagination to appreciate their natural beauty.
