::chinese.pavilion::

you have taken so many photos that you don't know where to start with your trip to floriade last week.  at the world show stage, you found this chinese pavilion, the house of china.

 as soon as you entered, you are transport back to china, like you were visiting a suzhou garden. it really quite resemble one of those.

 the chinese pavilion, the long corridor, the center pond, all  builds in actual size, with concrete, it would be a ashamed if this is not a permanent.

 the lanterns, the window and calligraphy all look very authentic, not a western interpretation.

the roof, spike to the sky

at the side of the house, chinese bonzai are on display

the pathway is properly designed and if not exquisite but they are chinese motif

it's just a serene place to be, sitting in the courtyard, you know you have had a moment of authentic china in the lowland.

you stay back tonight, too tired to go out, this is how the project is haunting you with never ending workload and meetings to attend during office hour. you're prudent as you still got to enjoy the delicious penang char kuey theow (fried flat noodles) that you took away last night.  you're too busy to pop back to your room for lunch today, so dinner is it. and tomorrow you're going for a lion hunt ^^.
