Pācīnavaṁsadāya untranslated

Pācīnavaṁsadāya, Pācīnavaṁsamigadāya. A park in the Cetiya kingdom (AN.iv.228f). Gotama Buddha visited it during his tours, and once, while staying there with Meghīya, the latter stopped in a mango grove in the village of Jantugāma, refusing to go any farther (AN.iv.163).

The park lay between Bālakaloṇakāragāma and the Pārileyyakavana (Dhp­a.i.47).

Anuruddha, Nandiya and Kimbila were living there during the time of the quarrel of the monks at Kosambī, and the Buddha visited them on his way to Pārileyyaka (Vin.i.350f.; cp. MN.i.205ff). It was there that Anuruddha became an Arahant (AN.iv.228f.; AN­a.i.108).

Buddhaghosa explains that the park was so-called because it was to the east of where the Buddha lived and it was covered with green bamboos (AN­a.iv.117).
