I woke up early and the sky is bright. Yes, in spring getting up early makes the saying "bright and early" so literally true! From my room I noticed a green patch in the middle of the concrete jungle and took a walk there. It is a garden and smells so good. I love the smell of the woods. It reminds me of Canada. The garden is all fenced up. I tried looking for the entrance. But gave up. I think the city want to limit access to prevent human activities from damaging the plants. I saw a family walking inside. The garden has a number of closed circuit cameras. So security is fairly tight.
After visiting the garden, I went to the Goddess of Mercy Temple opposite the hotel to offer my prayers. Buddha's birthday is coming soon, end of this week, I believe. So the temple is decorated and preparations are underway to welcome the flood of devotees this weekend.
