Chinnese Garden

#manilatrip The Chinese Garden is located in the Northwest of Rizal Park, between the Martyrom of Dr. Jose P. Rizal and the Open Air Auditorium. A large, white, Chinese gate leads to the garden. The garden covers quite a large area, most of which is an irregular pond around which a shaded path leads. There is a long pavilion on the southern shore of the pond. On some of its pillars there are black plates with Chinese sentences (translated into English and Tagalog). When we visited the garden on Sunday in the morning, martial arts classes were conducted under the roof of the pavilion, which added extra color to this place. I assume these classes are held here on a regular basis. Near the pavilion there is an impressive statue of Confucius. Admission is free. A beautiful place, definitely worth a visit.
