An oasis in the heart of an urban environment.
I was quite surprised to find out about this place that was opened in 2006. I think photography has made me more adventurous in seeking out new and interesting locations to explore, whether they are just around the corner or further afield. A good way to keep from being too sedentary. 
Cheers

My first time....
to visit Nan Lian Garden in the heart of urban Kowloon; so I literally felt like a tourist, with a camera in hand. The location which is adjacent to the Chi Lin Nunnery is a truly beautiful, colourful and scenic place with a tranquil and serene atmosphere...
Thank you Fernando for these beautiful shots.
I'm probably influenced by the green side of your shots but I love how some of them look like a "formal garden" (very symmetrical) and the other ones more to an English-style garden. Really interesting. Best wishes Alkiro
Such a beautiful location...

It looks like a lovely place to visit.
You capture what I assume is it's central aspect-peacefulness.
Yes, a very relaxing and tranquill environment.
I believe its part of the Chi Lin Nunnery and visitors are expected to maintain a respectful attitude. Admission is free and there is also a quality vegetarian restaurant on the grounds; something I might try on my next visit.
