1. What is a Rock Garden? — Overview

Hon Non Bo is renowned as the art of constructing, arranging, and scaling down grand natural mountains into miniature garden landscapes. In other words, it is often referred to as “artificial mountains” (gia son). This art form serves both aesthetic appreciation and Feng Shui purposes in daily life.

The art of miniature landscapes has a long-standing history among East Asian cultures. It is known as bonkei in Japan and penjing in China. However, each country exhibits unique characteristics in how they practice this art. While the Vietnamese style innovates by integrating water elements into the garden landscape, the Japanese and Chinese styles place greater emphasis on greenery and foliage.

In Vietnam, this refined hobby dates back to the reign of King Le Dai Hanh. On the occasion of the King’s birthday, artificial mountains were constructed on rafts in the middle of the river, allowing the King and his mandarins to row around and admire them. Today, the art of Hon Non Bo in Vietnam has reached new heights, becoming an indispensable element in landscape architecture, particularly in residential design.

2. Rock Garden and Its Meaning

Besides bringing aesthetic beauty to the house, it also has the effect of balancing yin and yang, creating positive energy for the home.

Elements such as mountains, flowing water, caves, plants, boats… are combined very intricately, creating a circulation of the five elements.

Accordingly, mountains are the place where the essence of heaven and earth converges, where wealth and fame gather. Rivers are a symbol of great fortune. Water represents wealth, and the flowing streams symbolize wealth continuously flowing into your home.

Rock gardens also help us understand more about life, which is the connection and interdependence between elements.

They help us realize that everything in this world is like a connected thread. We need to know how to balance and harmonize everything.

Thus, it can be seen that a rock garden is not only a miniature landscape of mountains, water, and sky, but also brings aesthetic beauty to your garden and home.

Especially, it is also an element that carries many feng shui meanings for the homeowner such as wealth, health, peace, …

4. Feng Shui Placement Ideas for Rock Gardens 

Rock garden under the staircase

Placing a rock garden under the staircase can improve the flow of air and energy in the house according to feng shui principles. This may help balance energy, bringing luck and harmony to the home.

However, feng shui experts believe that for the space under the staircase, it is best to build a dry rock garden. This is mainly due to two key reasons:

• To avoid a damp environment that can create conditions for mosquitoes to breed, affecting health.
• The water element inherently requires a spacious and well-ventilated area to maintain flow and balance of yin and yang energy. Therefore, a narrow space like under the staircase is not suitable.

Rock Garden in Front of the House

In front of the house, the most ideal feng shui position is at the corner of the house. It not only ensures aesthetic appeal but also symbolizes stability and resilience in overcoming challenges.

The position to avoid is placing the rock garden directly in front of the main entrance. This is understandable, as it can block positive energy and wealth from entering the home.

On the contrary, negative energy inside the house would also have difficulty dispersing outward, which may have an unfavorable impact on the homeowner.

Three-Peak Rock Garden

“Tam” means three, “Sơn” means mountain — a rock garden with three peaks. In feng shui, they represent the three elements “phúc – lộc – thọ” (blessings, wealth, longevity), symbolizing a fulfilled life both materially and spiritually.

The three-peak rock garden is favored by business owners as it carries a special meaning of stability. The three mountains are like a three-legged stand — steady, resilient through challenges, and capable of long-term growth.

Five Elements Rock Garden

According to the Five Elements philosophy, everything in the universe is formed from five basic elements: metal, wood, water, fire, and earth, which support and interact with one another.

Thanks to this harmony, it brings the homeowner peace, favorable conditions to overcome difficulties, suffering, and illness.
