The sacred garden is a garden that has been designed with a religious theme. There are a number of sacred gardens, including Zen Gardens, Goddess Gardens, Celtic Gardens, Biblical Gardens, Labyrinth Gardens and many others. Sacred trees are listed in some religiously influenced gardens, while others may contain herbs, vegetables and flowers.

Rustic benches and religious sculptures are sometimes placed in a sacred garden to improve the feeling of spiritual refuge for prayer and meditation.

For example, the channel of small stones flowing through the landscape will represent water and the rock can reheres the mountain. Some zen gardens consist only of a layer of sand, with one or more rocks artfully placed on the top of the sand, which is timeIt is a rake to create lines that represent running water.
The trees were sacred to the Celts and often worshiped in the groves of oak, ash, Rowan, Willow, Tisu and other trees considered sacred.
