There is no fee. It is a small, but complete garden set at the bottom of a side hill. It was dedicated in 2004. It includes a gate, a covered waiting bench, stepping stones to the library doors that open into the tearoom (these are covered), and a spring water pipe to purify the hands and mouth.

It was traditional for guests to meditate, one at a time, on the waiting bench.

The campus has paid student parking. Even a visitor pass does not guarantee a parking space. It is a busy campus.
