Chinese Garden
Wednesday, September 17, 2008
Yesterday I had a tiring afternoon with a quite long walk and heavy sweat. But wait, that doesn't mean it was a bad afternoon.

In fact it was a nice one. I went to Chinese Garden just few minutes away from where I stay. Well the place is nice and large, that's why I said in the beginning it was tiring and took me a quite lot of sweat. I sweat for my own health though. A lil' bit of long walk while fasting doesn't make me so suffer. Anyway back to the garden. It was a bout 4.30 or 5 when I got there so the sun was just about to set. I didn't think of having such a quite romantic ambiance before I decided to go to there, I was only thinking I needed to get out while it was quite a sunny day. At the first step entering the entrance I was faced by a tall pagoda with as usual the red curvy wavy Chinese roof. I started walking and suddenly noticed that around me there was a lot of Hello Kitty balloons. I thought it was the way the garden is usually like but it's not. They seem to be going to celebrate Hello Kitty anniversary (only a guess though).

Apart from the hundreds of Hello Kitty balloons, there were also some other attractions such as statues of some legendary Chinese heroes and some pagodas spread in different and distant places and sizes.

The nature is quite nice too there. I'm speaking about the lake, trees and birds. Well the trees and birds do sound a bit boring to you but when you're in the garden they just, somewhat, seem different. And the lake is nice. I know it's only a lake but again it seems different with the whole silent and peaceful ambiance around it.

Anyway the only bad side of the garden, at least when I was there, is that none of the pagodas was open for anyone to walk up to the top. The doors were all locked up.





Oh, another exciting thing about my trip there is that I could get so close to squirrels. Not talking about the ones in the cage like in the zoo but those living free. They seem to be let free so that they can attract the visitors even more. They came really close to me (my hand, actually). Well I was like holding a dead leaf and I guess they thought it was a sliced banana cause the leaf was yellow.

I really enjoyed the evening. Even though I sweat a lot as it was really sunny I felt glad. Sometimes I need to have heavy sweat too and that's healthy. Anyway if you like taking pictures, the garden has so many objects to be your objects. :)
