The deliciously cool beverage was richly enjoyed, contrasting so forcibly with the luke-warm liquid of our boats. There are twenty priests in the monastery, who are civil and polite to visitors. Tn the. Fourth year of Hienfoong's reign, the temple was pillaged by the rebels. Pak-kwif, the late lieutenant governor of Canton contributed oue thousand taels towards repairing it. Workmen are stilljbusy refitting the broken idols and walls. The priests would be glad to rent their rooms to any foreign...ers who might wish to occupy them a few weeks or months for recreation and a retreat from summer heat. After having climbed up the tortuous footpath of a high rocky eminence to auother temple almost hidden by the luxuriant shrubbery, we partook of our " tiffin " with a keen relish in one of the shady bowers. Nothing could surpass the charming: beauty of these sequestered spots with rare shrubs and plants, together with famous dwarf trees.
The fish ponds had large pieces of rocks cemented together, and firmly bound with a strong wire, looking like a rocky islet, from the crevices of which came exquisite flowers and creepers ; some formed an artificial grotto and cave in the centre of the miniature lake.
