Written by Will Lerner, Communications Manager for Portland Japanese Garden & Japan Institute<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Located on the other side of a massive sliding glass door on the second floor of the Jordan Schnitzer Japanese Arts Learning Center, the Jubitz Oregon Terrace is a restful scene tucked away from the busier areas in the Cultural Village of Portland Japanese Garden. On one side, a platform arises from water and features a rotating assortment of different bonsai<\/em> ranging from Chinese wisteria to western hemlock, to shore pine to vine maple. On small shelves on a stucco wall are kusamono<\/em>, accent plants that often accompany bonsai: sometimes, lupine, lady fern and violet, aster and vetch, or Douglas iris.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Jubitz Oregon Terrace\u2019s most notable sights and sounds come from its water feature. Long columns of volcanic basalt stand asymmetrically, that in spring are crowned by sunny yellow blooms of yamabuki<\/em> (pleniflora) and set against a backdrop of bright orange and red leaves in fall. At the base are dry white rocks, perched above a small sliding waterfall that lies on stone like linen on a bed, with ribbons of water dropping into a clear pool. The result is a sound that evokes a steady rainfall, a particular kind of audio balm different from the rush of the Heavenly Falls in the Strolling Pond Garden<\/a> or languid flow of streams in the Natural Garden<\/a>. In total, it evokes thoughts of one of Japan\u2019s most beloved natural landmarks: Takachiho Gorge.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Gorge is a long, narrow chasm lined with steep cliffs of volcanic basalt columns that tower over the Gokase River in Miyazaki, a prefecture on Japan\u2019s southern Kyushu Island. It is located in the town of Takachiho, recently sited by The New York Times<\/em> as an overlooked tourist destination<\/a>. Journalist Rachel Herring notes, \u201cthe Japanese have long recognized it as a setting for Japan\u2019s creation stories and mythology.\u201d This site\u2019s stone formations are awe inspiring\u2014that they would evoke reverence and an emotional connection to something greater than oneself feels only natural.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Reflecting Again and Again on One\u2019s Memories of Wild Nature<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Sakuteiki<\/em>, an 11th<\/sup> century Japanese composition believed to be the oldest know text on gardening techniques, begins with its first basic concept as translated by Jir\u014d Takei and Marc Peter Keane: \u201cSelect several places within the property according to the shape of the land and the ponds, and create a subtle atmosphere, reflecting again and again on one\u2019s memories of wild nature.\u201d While Portland Japanese Garden has several spaces where memories of wild nature are expressed, the Jubitz Oregon Terrace has a special connection to the Garden\u2019s Curator Emeritus, Sadafumi Uchiyama<\/a>: he was born in the small rural town of Kurume, about 90 miles from where the Gorge is located. Uchiyama is also the niwashi<\/em> (garden master) who designed the space, as part of the Garden\u2019s 2017 Cultural Crossing Expansion<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Uchiyama notes that the Jubitz Oregon Terrace highlights a geographical connection between the Pacific Northwest and Japan through the use of the volcanic columnar basalt. These rocks are not common occurrences on this planet, as they are caused from volcanic eruptions and must form near sources of water. Fittingly, the basalt was mined out of both the Snake River Canyon and area near Palouse Falls in Washington.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Beyond this, the Takachiho Gorge is situated in one of the highest elevations of southern Japan, Similarly, the Jubitz Oregon Terrace is located in the loftiest reaches of Portland Japanese Garden. However, Uchiyama notes that he wasn\u2019t simply copying his home prefecture\u2019s famous landmark to create this stunning landscape\u2014he doesn\u2019t seek to copy nature, but rather the experience<\/em> of nature.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWhen I see basalt, that\u2019s where my mind goes, but I never tried in a conscious way to equate it to the Takachiho Gorge. It\u2019s where I am most familiar with columns of basalt. So when I saw it, somehow my brain registered my upbringing. I was probably following that as a design guideline,\u201d Uchiyama shared. His vision of the overall site design and new gardens was to create a subtle unfolding journey from the cacophonic noise of modern life to the peaceful tranquility of the existing Garden oasis.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI realized at the end of the process what was guiding me,\u201d Uchiyama continued. \u201cI didn\u2019t necessarily try to recreate or mimic those features, but somehow, maybe subconsciously I was following that journey of water. To me, this water feature, placed at this high elevation, symbolizes the source of the Willamette and Columbia rivers that nurture our lives and spirits in the Portland area, just as the Takachiho Gorge does for those who live in my home region of Kyushu.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n

To visit the Jubitz Oregon Terrace, take either the stairs or elevator to the second floor of the Learning Center, the same building in which the Gift Shop is located. Though the large sliding door may appear imposing, you are invited to open it and spend some time in this less frequented Garden space.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
