Where did Buddha Sakyamuni go after. His parinirvana?
Does He have a pure land for His disciples to join Him after they had also attained enlightenment?
Please provide hinayana scriptural references only?

To the end of suffering. Extinction is the very meaning of nirvana. Parinirvana means “great extinction” (extinction after death). No pure land in Hinayana. Check Udana 8.1, included in the Theravada's Pali canon:
There is, bhikkhus, that base where there is no earth, no water, no fire, no air; no base consisting of the infinity of space, no base consisting of the infinity of consciousness, no base consisting of nothingness, no base consisting of neither-perception-nor-non-perception; neither this world nor another world nor both; neither sun nor moon. Here, bhikkhus, I say there is no coming, no going, no staying, no deceasing, no uprising. Not fixed, not movable, it has no support. Just this is the end of suffering.
