Anthropax's Old Blog

I believe this is the garden in the lovely nine dragons Taoist temple. I can't recall where in HK it is, but the garden itself was fantstic in design, and so tranquil. The major part of the garden was water, which in itself made it distinct from my western idea of what a garden is. The visitor wonders around on walkways and bridges above this large pond (complete with fish). I presume, that as it is a temple garden, it reflect the ideas of Taoism itself. I like this photo, as it shows the dualistic nature of Hong Kong; a serene temple garden, with large utilitarian tower blocks rising over it. Next door to this garden (visable through some fencing) was a McDonalds. Need I say more?
