The Nan Lian Garden
#hongkongtrip #freehotelstay #mytravelhacks #localguides The Nan Lian Garden is a beautiful and serene space literally in the middle of the concrete jungle of Hong Kong. Not precisely around the corner but easily accesible with the MTR, the Diamond Hill station is a five-minute walk from the gardens. The most people people come for the striking and quite photogenic Chinese pavillion with the surrounding pond and brightly contrasting red bridge, stunning on its own right, but do take time to admire the many other features you will find in this little breath of fresh air. Not exactly an "ancient" traditional garden, this is a relatively "new" garden, built in 2006 and managed by the Chi Lin Nunnery which is located accross the street.
But it is a typical traditional Chinese garden built in the classical Tang Dynasty style with all four elements of a classical Chinese garden:
Rocks
Water
Plants
and Architecture
And as in traditional Chinese gardens, all elements are carefully arranged to create a perfect balance with nature and the environment.

Best of Nan Lian Garden & Chi Lin Nunnery
Attraction: Nan Lian Garden & Chi Lin Nunnery
Location: Diamond Hill, Kowloon, Hongkong
MRT Station: Diamond Hill, Exit C2
Nan Lian Garden is a beautiful and peaceful place to visit in Hongkong. It is right opposite of Chi Lin Nunnery. We enjoyed walking around and took photos of the traditional chinese architecture plus the green surroundings and all these are for free. Yes, it is open for public free of charge which was really amazing 😅. You may include this place to visit in your future itinerary and I am very sure you are going to love the ambiance here.
Tips: Don't forget to bring your umbrellas especially during summer. 😃

Quiet Paradise in the heart of Hong Kong
The Nan Lian garden is like a paradise in the heart of Hong Kong. It offers a chance to escape the busy city life and just feel completely relaxed. Accessing the garden is very easy using Hong Kong MTR network. It is situated just across the street from Diamond Hill MTR station (Kwun Tong line and Tuen Ma line) exit C1 in Hong Kong.
After entering the park, the city noises kind of fade to the background and soon you won’t even remember you are inside the very busy city.
The garden has an area of approximately 3.5 hectares. It is designed in the Tang Dynasty-style with hills, water features, trees, rocks and wooden structures. Almost every detail is maintained so well that the whole place is just so breathtaking. It was opened to public in 2006.
Among the old buildings, there is also a tiny temple in the park. I recommend visitors to visit the temple to familiarize themselves with the Buddhist traditions but remember to behave in a calm manner, avoid loud voices and also consider other people. Some people are there to pray so respecting others is a must.
It takes about 1-2 hours to walk through the park and the temple. During that time you can forget all the busyness and just find your own inner peace. The park entry is free of charge, although some of the museums inside do have an entry fee. There are also some places from where to buy food inside the park area.

A beautiful place of traditional Chinese Tradition. The landscape, the walkways and the scenery is phantstic.
Easy access from the MTR.
Get your camera ready for pictures of trees, flovers (even in November) and the variouse subjects / themes of the garden; the hundred of Bonsai etc..
The vegetarian restaurant Chi Lin is a must - once in a lifetime vegetarian dinner.
The tea house, the exhibitions are superb.
Enjoy the house with the rocks. Many rocks are exhibited like a picture (small stone garden, Big Rock and a background (or even a window).
Having been in Hong Kong more than 30 times - it is always woth a trip for peace, beauty and enjoyment!
Do not miss also the Buddhist temple next to it!

Nan Lian Garden is a great place to visit when my parents came to visit us in Hong Kong. They could enjoy a peaceful afternoon to walk around the beautiful scenery. It's also close to Hammer Hill Park which had a beautiful garden with bench to relax.

The magnificent building is here. Today we come to Hong Kong's famous scenic spot (Nan Lian Garden), which imitates the architectural design of the Tang Dynasty.
It is very elegant and beautiful. Here you will find stone architectural art objects, and you can also see uniquely designed wooden furniture and buildings. The building looks like ancient times, and there is also a very large fish pond with a large number of koi fish.
There is also a special restaurant here for citizens to enjoy. The food includes dim sum, steamed buns, candies, pastries, and herbal tea. Souvenir shop selling handicrafts, religious items, wooden furnishings, etc. It’s a really rare place to appreciate.

Fresh Garden in of Hong Kong
Visited a beautiful garden in the bustling city of Hong Kong called Nan Lian Garden. Don't be confused when you're searching on Google, it's located in the similar area as Chi Lin Nunnery. The vibe was calming. I recommend you to visit this place when you're in Hong Kong if you want to experience the spiritual side of it. Spend at least 1.5 hours to explore the area of Nan Lian Garden and Chi Lin Nunnery. In terms of location, it is also easy to reach, since it's very close to Diamond Hill MTR Station.

🇭🇰Nan Lian Garden🌳🌳
We brought our family to Hong Kong 🇭🇰 and decided to skip the shopping malls in favor of experiencing natural scenery 🌳 , so we chose to visit Nan Lian Garden and Chi Lin Nunnery.
The entire garden is designed in the style of Tang Dynasty art, giving it a beautiful ancient feel. Coupled with the gentle breeze, it was quite idyllic.
Inside, there are various attractions to visit, including models of wooden houses, precious stones, unique-looking pine trees, and artificial waterfalls.
It's a great place to relax, take a leisurely stroll, and appreciate the surroundings.
We didn't expect to find such a peaceful and green oasis in the bustling city of Hong Kong, but it was definitely worth slowing down to experience the tranquility and serenity it offers.
Unfortunately, when we arrived, the main hall of Chi Lin Nunnery was already closed to visitors.
😞Remember, the visiting hours for the main hall end at 4:30 pm!
Both Nan Lian Garden and Chi Lin Nunnery do not require reservations or entrance fees.
👉🏻To get there: take the MTR to Diamond Hill station, exit at C2, and follow the signs for a 5-minute walk.
We visited Nan Lian Garden after exploring Wong Tai Sin Temple, as it's very close by – just one MTR stop away.

Hong Kong's Best Spots for Flower Viewing, the Lotus Pond is in Full Bloom!
I didn't expect the lotus flowers in the Nan Lian Garden Pond to be so beautiful. Located in Diamond Hill, Kowloon, Hong Kong, the garden is built with a Tang Dynasty style and will exceed your expectations once you visit.
🎫Ticket: Free
Opening Hours: 7:00-21:00
The garden is planted with many ancient pine trees, making it a nice place to enjoy the scenery. However, I prefer the lotus pond even more. This season is when the lotus flowers are most beautiful, with white and pink ones blooming splendidly.
In addition to this, there are many Tang Dynasty-style wooden structures, as well as various landscapes such as strange rocks, Zi Bridge, Wu Bridge, Lotus Platform, and waterwheel mills, all of which are very attractive.
If you get tired of walking around, there is a vegetarian restaurant in the garden where you can taste the vegetarian dishes of Chi Lin Nunnery, but the prices are not very cheap.

I took my bestie to check in at the Tang-style Nan Lian Garden Pond in Hong Kong, and the photos turned out amazing!
Hong Kong has this niche spot that's perfect for a visit with your bestie!
Nan Lian Garden Pond in Hong Kong is built on the architectural blueprint of a Tang Dynasty pond. The layout is centered around water, with the terrain and valleys as the framework, and plants such as flowers, cypress, and scholar trees as the main theme, complemented by garden buildings for leisure, creating a garden landscape dominated by natural scenery. It's really suitable to dress up in Tang costumes and check in with your bestie.
⛩️Address: No. 60 Fung Tak Road, Diamond Hill, Wong Tai Sin District, Hong Kong Special Administrative Region.
The park covers an area of about 35,000 square meters, so there are quite a few places to wander around, such as the Lotus Terrace, the Perfection Pavilion, the Chinese Timber Structure Architecture Gallery, the Water Moon Terrace, the Waterwheel Mill, the Bonsai Garden, and so on, all of which are great for taking photos.
Opening hours: 7:00-21:00 (January 1st to December 31st, Monday to Sunday).

Nan Lian Garden was an unexpected gain, thought it was just a small backyard, didn't expect to stay inside for nearly two hours, left when the sunset was slightly dark. It's rare to have such a large outdoor garden in Hong Kong where land is gold, and it's free, it's a quiet treasure in the city, clean and tidy, even a bit too exquisite. There is also a small Chinese wooden structure art museum in the garden (10:00-18:00) If you are hungry after visiting, there is a shopping mall back at the subway station.

A long-collected treasure place
There is such a paradise in the bustling downtown area
It is said to be built according to the artistic features of the Tang Dynasty garden⛩
The garden is not big, there are temples, ancient timelines, very classical decorated tea rooms, and an architectural museum
⛩Inside the architectural museum, there are structural diagrams and video explanations of our ancient buildings. To be honest, it is very shocking! There are also scaled-down models, but the workmanship is very exquisite, it is worth a visit, and it is also free.
It takes about two to three hours to stroll around inside, and it is also very suitable for taking pictures and checking in. It's really too beautiful!

Little Kyoto inside Hong Kong
#christmastrip
It is located in Diamond hill, where the shopping mall Hollywood centre is. This garden is just next to the mall with 2 minutes walking distance. Public transport like MTR and buses stop are near to the entrance.
The garden is the front half of the Nan Lian Monastery. Newly built Monastery, it copied the Japanese garden design. Lotus pond, mills, waterfall are added to the garden. Flowers are beautiful especially in spring. but the most spectacular is the golden tower in the middle of the garden. It looks alike with Kinkakuji in Kyoto. The garden also offers exhibition on sculpture, how the buildings were built and also a tea shop for resting.
Definitely a new tourist spot in Hong Kong
