 Nitobe - a Japanese Garden
Nitobe Memorial Garden on the premises of the University of Britsh Columbia in Vancouver was created		  
by Kanosuke Mori and designed according to classic Japanese design principles dating back to the 11th centrury.
It has been named after Inazo Nitobe (1862-1933), a Japanese scholar, educator, diplomat, and writer. The
two-and-a-half acres Nitobe Garden consists of a stroll garden, a large pond, and a tea garden. The garden
symbolizes the time of our lives in which we wander on our choice of paths.
I love to photograph in Nitobe Garden; its beauty and tranquility seem to inspire my images.
