  • Japan Is Shrouded in Mystique and Ancient History, and the Perfect Way to Unravel This Enigma Is by Exploring Its Landscape Gardens
    Japan is shrouded in mystique and ancient history, and the perfect way to unravel this enigma is by exploring its landscape gardens. Their basic design is based on capturing the grace and beauty of nature and bringing it into daily life. As simplistic as this may sound, the true magnificence of Japanese gardens is profound. They create soulful, refined and elegant spaces, a humbleness surrounded by nature. Landscape gardening has been an art form in Japan for centuries. Their designs can be put into three distinctive groups, namely hill gardens, dry gardens and tea gardens and can include everything from courtyards to streams and basic, austere spaces to lush, tropical environments. Some are highly groomed, while others look almost wild. The general landscaping theme is based on the principle of minimalist simplicity, including understated contrasts in hues and textures of green, and a near flawless harmony with the elements. This accord is attained through repetition and a semblance of balance. Japanese gardens generally follow several basic design principles: they are hugely reduced in scale, they are enclosed, the angle of view is crucial, they borrow scenery, and they hold balance and symbolism. Most Japanese gardens endeavor to duplicate the environment in miniature. The Japanese garden is a work of living art and a reflection of the Japanese spirit. Nothing is left to chance; every living thing in a garden exists for a reason and stands as a symbol for something else in Japanese culture. A simple garden walkway could reveal to us a part of the richness of Japanese history or its metaphorical significance.

On June 16, UCLA Chancellor Gene Block and related personnel arrived in Japan and after holding discussions with urban development personnel at Kashiwa-no-ha Smart City, held an inaugural reception. The UCLA Japan Center was founded as a memorial project for the 100th anniversary of UCLA in 2019 and will serve as a point of contact for UCLA in Japan, a Japan Alumni Association office and a Japan base for UCLA researchers. UCLA chose this location because it endorses Kashiwa-no-ha Smart City’s concept of urban development to create problem-solving models for the world and 31VENTURES KOIL’s concept of business creation through open innovation, both based on public-private-academic partnership. With such a location as the stage, a major goal of the center is to be a base of exchange that contributes to enhancing international relations between Japan and the rest of Asia as well as the U.S. and promoting mutual
