Japanese stone lanterns, also known as "ishidoro" or "toro," are traditional lanterns used in Japanese gardens, temples, and shrines. These lanterns are made of stone and come in various shapes and sizes. Japanese stone lanterns are typically used for decorative purposes and can be placed along pathways, near water features, or in gardens to provide a calming and peaceful ambiance. They are often lit up at night using candles or electric lights, creating a serene and mystical atmosphere.
