The Pureland Japanese Garden

A Memory of North Clifton.


While visiting my sister-in-law Margaret Paine in nearby North Muskham, I discovered this exquisitely beautiful Japanese garden.  It is known as the Pureland Japanese Garden and Meditation Centre and is in North Clifton.

It appears to have been built by one man (Buddha Maitreya) over many years and is truly staggering in its simple beauty.

How is it possible that one man has taken a couple of acres of flat land and transfomed it with his bare hands to a landscape of humps, hollows, trees and water.

Once seen but never forgotten.  A tranquil place that lends itself to higher self-awareness, and meditation.

It is beautiful!

Totally agree - we lived near to it in North Clifton until recently and greatly miss it.
