NANLIAN Garden

NANLIAN Garden

Nan Lian garden, located at 60 Fung Tak Road, diamond hill, Wong Tai Sin District, Kowloon, Hong Kong, is a park of the leisure and Cultural Services Department. It is managed, operated and conserved by Chi Lin King court at a nominal cost of $1 per year. The park is also responsible for the design, construction supervision and routine maintenance of the park. The park, covering an area of 35000 square meters, is based on the Tang Dynasty garden pool. It was built in 2003. On November 14, 2006, the chief executive of Hong Kong, Donald Tsang, and the chairman of the Hong Kong Buddhist Association, elder Shi Jue Guang, officiated at the opening ceremony. It was officially opened to the public on November 15.

Nanlian garden pool is based on the garden pool of jiangshou residence in Xinjiang county, Shanxi Province. According to fan Zongshi's records of jiangshou residence in the third year of Changqing (823 AD) of emperor Mu Zong of Tang Dynasty and the research of scholars and experts, the artistic characteristics of gardens in Tang Dynasty are reconstructed. With water as the main body, Digu Diyu as the skeleton, flowers, trees, cypresses, locusts and other plants as the theme, the layout of Nanlian garden pool is supplemented by garden buildings for recreation. According to the principle of "escaping the human, depending on the land, and integrating the nature" proposed by Liu Zongyuan, a poet of Tang Dynasty, the garden style is mainly composed of natural scenery.

Preparation process

The site of Nanlian garden pool was originally a squatter area. It was demolished by the Hong Kong government for the construction of the Tate's Cairn Tunnel in the 1980s and is intended to be used for recreation. The Urban Council plans to turn the site into an ax Hill Park and cooperate with the adjacent Chi Lin Ching court to imitate the design of Tang Park. However, the landscape design originally proposed by the Architectural Services Department is incompatible with that of Chi Lin Ching court. The design, construction and supervision of the project will be handed over to Chi Lin Ching court, which will operate the park after completion. However, the ownership of the park is entirely owned by the government and under the jurisdiction of the leisure and Cultural Services Department.

The first phase of Fushan Park - "Donglian garden" and "Xilian garden" were completed in 2000. However, due to the dissolution of the Urban Council in 1999 and the huge budget deficit faced by the Hong Kong SAR government at that time, the second phase of Nanlian garden pool project has been vacant. At the same time, the cost of the two design schemes submitted by zhilianjingyuan is much higher than the government budget, and the construction scheme has been revised many times. The construction of Nanlian garden pool was finally started in 2003, with a total cost of 245 million yuan, of which 177 million yuan was contracted by the government, and the rest was donated by Zhilian Jingyuan.

Nanlian garden is managed and operated by Zhilian Jingyuan for five years. During this period, zhilianjingyuan will charge the government $1 a year as a symbolic management fee.
