As is known, China and Japan are neighboring countries which had developed close exchanges in a wide range of long history. Japan has absorbed much cultural consciousness in China, including natural philosophy fused to the unique culture and for their own digestion. Seen from this point of view of nature in both countries found that there are similarities. Because of the development of folklore and historical traditions and consciousness of the culture gap between the two countries, the two countries in view of nature must be different. Stance to the point of this paper, I wish to study the concept of nature in China and Japan.Research on the concept of nature of China and Japan has been conducted in a wide range, mostly gathered in the literature. The cause of the differences in the concept of nature between the two countries have so often been discussed in terms of awareness of the natural environment and traditional, but differences between the two countries in terms of Chinese influence on Japanese culture and historical development of both countries were little discussed. So I want to try to study the concept of nature of the two countries from the garden arts and poetry literature in order to clarify the differences between the two countries in view of nature. Besides, I want to consider other aspects and the course of history from awareness and acceptance of traditional culture and traditions of both countries.While paper based on research findings so far, consider the nature of the two countries view China from poetry and garden, consider the relation between Nature and religion, and similarities and differences between the two countries and nature intended to clarify the reason that it was born.If you look overall, the paper is divided into five parts. The introduction of the first portion is describing, such as research methods and previous studies and research purposes, the second part will examine the concept of nature from the poetry of China and Japan, to clarify the differences and similarities that compared to the respective consider the relationship with view of nature and religion. The third part will examine the concept of nature of the two countries in garden art, and discuss the relationship with religion. The fourth part is due to consider the reasons of the similarities and differences between the view of nature in both countries. The last part of the fifth puts together a future for the causes and the similarities and differences between the two countries in view of nature.I got the conclusion of my own through studying the view of garden and nature poetry of the two countries China and Japan. Because of various causes, the Chinese view of nature is opposition to human power, while respect for nature, according to some natural view of nature. On the other hand, it is seeking to represent a natural sense of harmony and unity with nature and respect for nature from poetry and garden in Japan.
