+USING IMAGINATION AND FLAIR, THE ARCHITECTS HAVE DESIGNED A MAGNIFICENT FACILITY WITH MANY SPECIAL FEATURES INCLUDING A WATER POND, A ROCK MOUND AND AN EARTH MOUND IN THE CENTRE, AND A FUTURISTIC-LOOKING PAVILION ON ONE SIDE OF THE POND.

+A CIRCULAR PATH RUNS AROUND THE PERIPHERY OF THE POND SO THAT VISITORS CAN ENJOY A PLEASANT WALK ROUND THE GARDEN.+

MR WONG THANKED THE CHINA RESOURCES (HOLDINGS) COMPANY FOR HAVING MADE A GENEROUS DONATION COMPRISING MATURE TREES. TRADITIONAL STONE LIONS, STONE LANTERNS, A LARGE BONSAI AND POTTERY REFUSE HOLDERS AS A FURTHER IMPORTANT CONTRIBUTION TO THE APPEARANCE OF THE ROCKERY GARDEN.

+VITRUALLY AN OASIS OF BEAUTY AMID THE HIGH-RISES OF THE WAN CHAI RECLAMATION, THIS BEAUTIFULLY LANDSCAPED ROCKERY GARDEN ON A 3 900 SQUARE-METRE SITE WILL SURELY BECOME A POPULAR LEISURE GROUND BOTH FOR OFFICE WORKERS IN THE AREA AND NEARBY RESIDENTS,+ SAID MR WONG.

+AT WEEKENDS AND ON HOLIDAYS IT IS SURE TO BE POPULAR WITH OTHER URBAN DWELLERS, TOO.+
