About Nikka Yuko Japanese Garden

Nikka Yuko Japanese Garden is a 3.75-section of land cultivate close Henderson Lake in Lethbridge, Alberta, composed by Dr. Masami Sugimoto and Dr. Tadashi Kubo of Osaka Prefecture University in Japan. The structure, asylum, scaffolds and doors were worked in Kyoto, Japan, by five craftsmans who later reassembled them in the garden. It was opened July fourteenth 1967, amid the Canadian Centennial. Center plan ideas used in the garden incorporate Wabi-sabi, Shakkei, (acquired view), and Miegakure. Water, include a portion of the significant highlights of Nikka Yuko, as in most Japanese scene gardens.

Trees are basically conifers and a large number of the plants are pruned in the Niwaki style, uncovering the branch structure and copying trees found in outrageous conditions, or ones later in their life cycle. Stones and shakes are utilized generously, either in portrayal of their characteristic shape, or emblematically to propose different parts of a setting, for example, mountains, cascades or islands set in oceans or seas. Man-made structures, for example, the Pavilion and Bell Tower likewise have a huge influence in the garden's plan, as man made articles are intended to differentiate the garden's scene.

In the mid 1960s, Lethbridgian Reverend Yutetsu Kawamura, a pastor of Buddhist chapels in Alberta, and Cleo Mowers, manager and distributer of the Lethbridge Herald freely thinking about a Japanese garden being worked in Lethbridge. Kurt Steiner, the director of the Lethbridge Travel and Convention Bureau, in the long run united the two and a controlling board of trustees was shaped.
