    The Nitobe Memorial Garden is a unique symbiosis Nitobe Memorial Garden of Pacific Northwest Coastal forest and Japanese UBC Botanical Garden native plants and is a testament to the relationship that exists between the Canada and Japan. The Vancouver, BC, Canada Nitobe Memorial Garden is located on the campus of the University of British Columbia (UBC) in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada and is managed under the auspices of the UBC Botanical Garden. Garden History The garden was originally designed to commemorate Japanese educator, agriculturist, scholar, philosopher and statesman Dr. Inazō Nitobe, who was the founding director of the International Committee on Intellectual Cooperation, that later became UNESCO. Dr. Nitobe worked for World Peace and International co-operation throughout his life. He helped establish important relationships between Japan and other nations. His most famous published work is Bushido: the Soul of Japan, one of the first major works on Samurai ethics, Japanese culture, and Japanese morality. A best seller in its time, Bushido was read by Robert Baden-Powell, founder of the Boy Scouts, and President Theodore Roosevelt, among others. Nitobe later was honored with his image on the 5,000 yen note. In 1933, on his way back from the Pacific Ocean Conference in Banff, Canada, Dr. Nitobe died in Victoria, Canada. Two years later, his friends and the Japanese community in Vancouver brought the Kasuga lantern from Japan, and created a small Japanese garden with it on UBC campus. August 2015 marked the 80th anniversary of this event. Following the Second World War, Dr. Nitobe’s friends, the Japanese community in Vancouver, and local government agreed that a permanent memorial to Nitobe and his work was needed in In 1935, friends of Dr.
