Zigzag stepping stones

Katsura Imperial Villa, Kyoto sightseeing
These flat stones are the ones in the garden of Katsura Imperial Villa and these are placed in zigzag to walk on them naturally.

These were designed about 400 years ago but don't feel old at all.

Thank you for the comments.
jing: Old irregular and minimalistic designs in Japanese architecture are rather modern, I think.
