Tranquil Walk in the Nan Lian Garden with Mr. Taylor Yau 南蓮園池逍遙遊 (Conducted in Cantonese)

The HKU Museum Society is pleased to organise a visit to the Nan Lian Garden, a classical garden designed in Tang dynasty style incorporating elements of artificial hillocks, ornamental rocks, water features, timber structures and meticulously maintained bonsai (penjing) and mature trees. Mr. Taylor Yau, Vice Chairman of the Hong Kong Penjing and Artstone Society will guide us on a tour of the garden highlighting the designs of bonsai that convey harmony with nature.

南蓮園池為仿唐風格的中式園林，園內除了亭台樓閣等建築外，並有各類樹木、山石、池水及盆景等園藝佈置。沿園內路徑漫步，步移景換，使人彷如置身山水畫之中，淨化心靈。

嶺南園藝盆景講求自然美，雖然以人工修飾，但構思精巧，不露痕跡。香港盆景雅石學會副主席邱泰來先生指出每盆盆景皆有含意及意境，而園林也剛好將這件事情放大了。邱先生將深入淺出地引領本次「逍遙遊」。
