A little departure back in time to my trip in New Zealand back in December where I visited a replication of a Chinese Garden in the Hamilton Botanical Gardens. I take you back to world of the Ming Dynasty and Chinese Gardens and show you the elements of Chinese Garden Design and how you can incorporate your own backyard or if you like, sit back and enjoy the tour of world and landscape style dating back hundreds of years.
