Nan Lian Garden

When we were in Hong Kong we went to the Nan Lian Garden one evening, it’s built in tha Tang Dynasty style and is amazingly stunning . We ate at the vegetarian restaurant and then wandered around the garden just as the sun was starting to go down. Here are a few of my favourite photos from the garden…

This place is quite bizarre, the trees are really well shaped and pruned.. you can see the wires that pull them into their strange decorative shapes. There are loads of huge, oddly shaped rocks scattered around everywhere. The last photo is the vegetarian restaurant, the windows are just behind that waterfall. It’s a really peaceful place to wander around, so if you have a spare hour or two in Hong Kong you should definitely get the MTR up to Diamond Hill and check it out!
