"Pureland" Japanese Garden and Meditation Centre - "Review"

I did NOT experience the Meditation, Tea Ceremony or Food, so I will not be able to tell you about that,I'm so sorry, but I did visit the garden and chat to the owner of the place( In Japanese, you'll learn more about that later).
  This garden Is a BEAUTIFUL garden, you really feel at peace and relaxed while visiting this garden, thought it's nice to "explore", it's a place to walk around and admire the beauty of the place, while finding small passages and a small bridge over a stream, and wonder what other incredibly beautiful site that it will lead you to.
   I definitely recommend this to all, and it is definitely a 10/10.

EXTRA:

This where the part about talking to the owner come, this isn't really important to the "review", so I put this in the "Extra", Anyway, I wanted to make conversation about me learning Japanese, Japanese people tend to be quite happy about foreigners learning Japanese, and I decided to chat to him in Japanese, it wasn't a very interesting conversation, I just explained that I was learning Japanese and he asked a few questions about it( where I was learning it? Who my teacher was? ect... )and then he said that my japanese was good, and I said Thanks, I should have said "zen zen" like a good "gaikokujin".

I don't know why I feel the need to write this.
