Posted March 15, 201015 yr Staff 1. This water feature was taken sometime in the 1950's. It is 60 donkey years ago! 2. Can you see the miniature hexagonal pavilion? Such Chinese pavilions are very popular in the past: and comes in all shapes e.g. circle; square; hexagonal and octagonal pavilions. 3. Today, such water feature cum landscaping is close to obsolete unless it is a purposeful theme park type of structure. 4. Although such pavilions ting can be found in temples; these pavilions are equaly and not exclusive to temples or religious places. As such structures can be found in Chinese theme parks and gardens - to provide shade and shelter. 5. On the right side of the photo is the Yellow Cane palm plant. Very hardy and popular in this part of the world. We call it a low maintenance or even no maintenance plant!
