    How wonderful to see these photographs of Neverland,Michael’s dream. I would love to travel there for the viewing of Michael to whisper my prayer that he will find a place of comfort, light and peace in the next world. He created a place of beauty for all chidren (and grown-ups of innocence) but he did have the place violated by those who rampaged around looking for dirt during the trials. Michael, I hope you find your way with the help of a loving God to a much more beautiful place than Neverland…….Paradise in the arms of Jesus! Thank you again for the lovely photos.

    thank you for the photos.

    hope one day some generous person(s) restores neverland as per MJ’s original neverland. as a memorial to MJ it should be restored as one time this was the “place in
    his Heart … a place much brighter than tomorrow … a better place for you and for me” neverland is MJ’s dream - his fairyland where one never grows old and is HAPPY.

    loved Michael Jackson! His music , brilliance and originality has no equal.

    I was searching for the address to Neverland Ranch, I heard there may be a viewing of Micheal Jackson on Friday. My granddaughter said she would like to go. We grew up listening to M.J. music, Thriller being my favorite. I never realized Micheal was 50 years old, I always will remember him as a beautiful person, shy, the icon that he was. Our blessings to the family in these times of heart break. God Bless them all.

    Thank you so much for bringing this Michael’s wonderful place to me! I feel at peace with Michael and his love for children and that all he wanted is to bring out the happiness for all children in his Neverland home. Thank you again!

    Thank you so much for the photos as I’ve never seen Neverland Ranch. Yes, I believe Michael wanted part of his childhood back that he missed and he wanted other children to share it. It’s a shame that some people on this earth tried to change things and make it worst when it was by hurting Michael. It was a beautiful thing he did for the children. He loved children and he loved everyone. I’m sure he’s an Angel in Heaven now watching over the people that loved him. He’s the type of person that would forgive. He went through so much and he’s in peace now. Thanks for sharing the great photos and giving your thoughts. I really appreciate it when people say their true feelings. I never met Michael but I can hear his message in a lot of his songs. His dancing took so much concentration to learn. He did everything to please his audience the people he loved. Thank you Michael for bringing us and the children such joy! We’ll always love you.

    Such beautiful photos. You were so lucky to have experienced this. My heart aches at the suffering Michael went through. I hope that one day Neverland will be restored to its original condition and it can be a lasting tribute to the beautiful soul who lived there.

    As with so many around the world, I am left at a loss for words for what Michael meant to me. He is in God’s hands now, and the “lost boy” is lost no longer. I will miss him.

    You have done a nice job of giving some insight to man/child that I believe he was. We don’t know what we have until its gone and this ranch and its owner belong to the ages now. Thank you for giving me the images that I would otherwise never have seen. I will miss him.

    I Loved Michael Jackson. Thank you so much for sharing the pictures of neverland as thats the closest I’ll ever get. Beautiful place! Quite impressive. Will miss Jacksons music. May his legend live forever.

    This is the first time I seriously took a peak at neverland by surfing in the net. Now I see why he died. He was trapped in his childhood, wanting other children to enjoy what ne “never” enjoyed in his own “land,” then as events turned around, his land was taken away from him, in his attempt to go through all the mess, he needed years, and in one of his attempts to win back the world and his land, he was ready to give it all, because “this is it, the final curtain call.” He “never” gave weight to the fact that he was aging, all he wanted was to gain back what the odd world took from him, because he knew those who loved his music never abandoned him. In his plunge to win, he died, and in his death, came the truth, that those who loved him and his music never abandoned him. He was right all along, “this is it, the final curtain call” to show those who destroyed him the real way to end a great show!!!! My salutations go not only to the King of Pop, but to those to who failed to put a good man down……

    I was shocked and still can’t believe that he’s gone. I believe that in his adult life, he was only making up for his lost childhood by spending time with children. He made neverland as, I see it, a place for all children to visit and just be children and have all the fun they want. He was just a 50 year old who never grew up. He was always critisized in life, so now, I hope he’s in a much better place now. I loved his music and will miss him terribly. There will never be another michael jackson. No one will come close. R.I.P michael and my condolensces to his family and his children. FOREVER IN MY THOUGHTS.

    I am at home, in Spain, I am watching the pictures you took and I am crying! I can feel what Michael wanted to share by building such a beautiful, sweet and caring place. Since he died I am learning to love him more and more through his music and his dance and his energy. I can sympathise with his childhood robbed. I did not have any either and it takes the whole life to build a self in order to function in the real world. I am still trying and sometimes I find it very hard. At least Michael used his talents to give joy to others. Michael is an inspiration to me. Thank you with all my heart for sharing this with us. Michael! may your soul be at peace now. I will keep you always in my heart.

    I would just like to say thank you for all the wonderful pictures. I loved Michael. He was a very caring person, who did alot for this world. He was a great humanitarian, beat down but ridiculious scandal that was not true. I hope you are at peace now michael , Lord knows you could not get it here on earth. I love you and will always remember you forever!

    Condolences to the family. It is very sad but God has reason for everything that had happened in our lives. He is a legend, he gave so many smiles to each person in this earth. I will remember him as a supernatural person who has a genuine heart, he gave everything he could possibly can to entertain us. His one dream that he was dreaming of when he was alive has come - ‘to be normal’. RIP Michael Jackson….. you will be always remember.

    Why auction such a beautiful fun place for children. It should be opened as an amusement park in remembrance of Michael Jackson the Greatest Performer of all time!!. RIP Michael

    As i am viewing the pictures of Neverland, tears run down on my face thinking why such kind and loving person was humiliated. His childhood was robbed from him which leads him to build this paradise for the children to enjoy their moment as he did not. He just wanted the children to be HAPPY as how his song says. What a wonderful soul who only wanted happiness around him but was just destroyed by enviousness…by people who envied of his fame and fortune. I love you Michael Jackson and your memory will remain always. Your brilliant mind and loving heart will surely HEAL THE WORLD and make us one despite of troubles and we will proudly shout out loud that WE ARE THE WORLD for you are encuraging us to make our own world. I know that more beautiful things are in your mind to help the helpless and the misfortune but you GONE TOO SOON. Remember Michael, YOU ARE NOT ALONE! We love you, your goodness, your humbleness, your kindness and your MUSIC will live on!

    Scott,
    Thank you so much for risking getting caught to take these fabulous pictures. I’m in Texas and will never have a chance to see such a wonderful place for the children and Michael. It really saddens me that it is being destroyed by the weather. Ya know Michael left Neverland as it was no longer what he had built it to be, for the children. I pray that his family and the bank will rebuild it like the family did for Elvis. Elvis has never been forgotten and is worth more money dead than when he was alive. This would be wonderful for Michael’s kids and fans too. Keep him alive in our hearts and minds. Again Thanks for the pictures and gosh I’d love to have one of the bronze statues, they are beautiful. Dannette

    These photos are priceless! Thank you for sharing them - they offer much insight into Michael Jackson. If the ranch gets restored to its former glory, I would definitely visit. I have been to Graceland and it helped to understand the person behind the image. The same would hold true for Neverland. I’ve been a fan since the J5 days & have admired his work. I’m sad to see him leave us. God bless Michael & all those grieving for him.

    I am sorry for your loss but i hope that fans will respect your time to mourn. I hpoe you all know that regards of the media stories that i know that micheal loved him family more than life. There is not one person without fault but the media made micheal into something that was not human and micheal only worrry about family and fans he didn’t want to let any one down and he gave his life for this. I just hope that mrs Jackson hug each of her children and her and joe know that fame is not real but love Can stand against anything. I just wish that your family be so close that you don’t allow material thing to bring that bond. I cry the hold time i watch micheal memorial but yet a felt a sense of joy within me assure me that no mattter what this family is going to be stronger than it has ever been. I want all to take time to think about all your joys and mishaps and rember that love never dies it only grows look around you all the children that you and joe have put on this earth . I want you to know Mrs Jackson you are the frist lady a lady with a vision for her family. Mr joe jackson you are so bless to have made children with a woman of that status so many people comment michael but he was only a part of the best i will be praying for all of you and by the way smile micheal is watching you i am not a fan i am a person that know god treasures the jackson family.

    Thank you so much for sharing these photos. I have never seen these before and the pictures are beautiful. I miss Michael and have had a hard time with his death for the past month even though I never met him. I am 40 years old and I have been a fan since I was 9 years old. It still doesn’t seem real to me and for some reason seeing these pictures helps. Thank you, Melissa

    Thank-You for these beautiful photographs. Did you sneak in? You were smart to go when you did. All those beautiful rides etc. are all gone now. Your photographs are absolutely gorgeous. Michael Jackson created a dreamy beautiful place and the naysayers had to think the worst and turn it into something dirty. Michael Jackson had a pure heart: he really did. So everyone is different in this world: why are we so quick to judge them? Your photos showed me that a magical place in a magical valley were created for and by MJ and for those who visited. It shoud be restored to its former beauty. If he hadn’t cared about it he wouldn’t have tried to save it and begin touring again - he also wouldn’t have fought to stop the auction that was underway to sell all Neverland’s sculptures and memorabilia. God Bless You for sharing with us.

    Thank you for those pictures, I drove over there hoping to see it. Because I know it had ment alot to MJ, and they really messed up when all those bad people acused him of those horible things. He was a great person, I never belived any of those of that. He was a kid inside, and who isn’t , just because he was not afried to show it. He wanted kids to have fun, the fun he did not have as a kid. When I drove over there I only got to see the first gate, we couldn’t see anything else I cried a littel knowing that MJ had lived there, It felt good. May you rest in peace, and I will always remember you. Love you Michael Jackson

    Neverland… A place for children old and young, sick and downtroden, to have a day in their lives they would never forget. I thank you for these pictures. I have another glimpse into Michael’s life. If people who hated him, could see what he saw, what he created for the joy of watching a child’s eyes light up, they would have supported him and not tear him down. When the police raided his precious home, he never wanted to go back there. Why didn’t people just let he be. He loved children and so should we all, but to destroy his attempt to show children what love is and that they were appreciated by this wonderful man, was disprespectful. Michael is in peace now with the God of us all. It hurts me so much that he was so misunderstood. I will love Michael until the day I die. To his family, I am so sorry that he is gone but he left us a legacy of wonderful music, memories and lots of love and tht love will continue on until the end of time. God bless you Michael for the time we had with you and until I see you at heaven’s gate, bless you my love.

    Neverland and Michael will forever go hand in hand. But it stoped being his home when that BS started. if you only knew Mike, that BS broke him in ways only he will ever truly know. Now Neverland is thing, Because Michael will never return there. What a lost for this world. So Sad!!!
