What type of Garden is NOT like the others? The Beetles "Octopii Garden", Japanese, Chinese, &English Gardens?
We all know how mathematically precise and exacting the rose gardens in UK can be worked out on precise Geometric proportions, but given I am in Australia, they are a long long long way to go to see these??? Then we have Japanese Gardens where Zen Buddhist Munks meditate creating wonderous patterns in the gravel raked each morning for Mr Miyargie Note Karate Kids one and two filmed in Holywood to be authenically Japanese, just like the real thing but a copy. Having been into an out of just about every Chinese Garden in Mainland China when I studied at the best Uni in China Tsing Hua as part of a tour I love books on Su Zhou gardens and went into dozens, very natural nice layout and pleasing with pagoda's meditative spots but more natural less exacting but before the Fragrant Hill Hotel got torn down as a Brilliant example of Chinese Architecture for Chinese Hotels mostly built by foreigners then we have an Octopus Garden? Remeber the song under the sea? Miles from Australia, definately Disneyland so forms part of the Pacific Rim Solution to Australian Immigration and you wonder why? Yeah why not all the English are alreay here and we have to go TWELVE THOUSAND MILES to see an ENGLISH GARDEN???? You pick which is not like the others I have my opinion NOT based on FACTS BUT OPINION? Then again the English probably think we Aussies are weird and its why we win the cricket I mean? Bowling underarm to the New Zealanders so they couldnt win? BRILLIANT!!!! Anzac WWII all over again if not in reality the media, but the english always have gin at tea? Its not cricket course not its why we win, win at any cost? Staple a fifty to the answer too? Would help me eat eh?
