Leisure Walk at Chinese Garden

After a hectic working week, it will be a good choice to grasp some fresh air to free our mind.

Pei Quan and me went to Chinese Garden to enjoy the peaceful atmosphere and also to have his first practice session on his newly bought DSLR. 

Chinese Garden was built in 1975 with the theme of an ancient China, whereby, the architectures are full with the ancient chinese monuments such as, the Imperial garden, pagoda, tower and bridge. The garden is suitable for picnic, jogging and tourist visit.

Our first destination, the Chinese Pagoda Tower.. 


The stairs leaded towards the top of the Pagoda create a nice circular effect..


Admiring the scenery on top of the pagoda..


At the entrance there a legendary auspicious Chinese statue called "Kirin" - 麒麟。 


The pagoda standing majestically under the sunny rays..


Small bench for some relaxation..

It was a great day out. A good place for couples to have their pre-bridal shooting here!
