The Most Beautiful Urban Garden - Chi Lin Nunnery
Tucked away among the skyscrapers of Hong Kong is an urban garden like no other. On this episode we take a look at the Chi Lin Nunnery, the world’s most beautiful urban garden.
The Chi Lin Nunnery was founded in 1934 as a retreat for Buddhist Nuns.
-It was rebuilt in the 1990s following the traditional Tang Dynasty architecture
-The Chi Lin Nunnery buildings are the only in Hong Kong to be built in this style of architecture in modern times
-The entire complex has 16 halls, a library, school, pagoda, bell tower and drum tower sprawling across 360,000 sq ft or 33,445 sq meters.
-Now what is very bizarre about the Nunnery is it is located across the street from an MTR Station, which is Hong Kong’s subway line
-When you exit the subway you’ll see a big wall and think nothing about it, if you happen to accidently wander into the Nunnery (as its free of charge) you’ll be more than pleasantly surprised as I was. The entry into the garden is full of immaculately cared for plants, bushes and trees that you’re more then likely not to see anywhere else, at least looking as nice as well manicured as those ones do.
There are a handful of buildings with different exhibits and a vegetarian restaurant under a waterfall.
-Shock comes once again when you ascend the stairs to the main Nunnery buildings, you’ll see multiple people praying to buddha, a handful of tourists and real Buddhist Monks.
-If you want to go inside the buildings arrive earlier in the day as they close them off in the afternoon
-For a city as busy, cramped and hectic as Hong Kong this place can really relax even the most stressed person out there.
