Alpine botanical gardens. In Europe, they are also called alpine gardens. They are gardens made of natural stones and planted with rock-root plants from alpine regions. They were popular in England in the 19th century. A representative example is at Kew Gardens in London (1910). In Japan, they are also built on Mt. Mitake in Tokyo and provide a place for climbers to enjoy.
