First.. Yes of course I want a free trip to Japan, who wouldn't?

Yes, I will going on a tourist visa. I realize that it's a long shot to get this visa. I discovered it so late, but one should always try. You can only get a no.

Well since time is running out I will go with the photograph thing.

Then the thing is, what kind of "institution" will I contact? Maybe like a company or whomever who does(produces) those zen gardens.

That would probably be a good contact. Then I perhaps could tag along and watch how they when they make a zen garden.

Well then, do you know how I can contact people that those this?

Keep replying I'm thankful that you guys are trying to understand me atleast
