The Nitobe Memorial Garden honors Dr. Nitobe’s dream of fostering intercultural understanding which was initiated by UBC President Norman Mackenzie.
It serves as a bridge between cultures, where visitors learn about Japanese traditions, such as the tea ceremony, which symbolizes respect and connection.
A visit to the Nitobe Memorial Garden offers a glimpse into Japanese culture and highlights a significant piece of Japanese-Canadian history.
Making a gift to the garden is a thoughtful way to honor the memory of a loved one, reflecting the spirit of Dr. Nitobe’s dream of fostering understanding and peace. Just as the garden connects Japanese culture with the world, your contribution becomes part of this living tribute to harmony and respect.
