If you’re getting overwhelmed by all the historical sites you’re visiting during the day combined with your nightly clubbing adventures, why don’t you reserve some time for yourself and visit the Chinese Garden of Serenity in Santa Luċija?
Grab the opportunity to let your soul find its original tranquillity by spending a quiet afternoon soaking up the soothing ambience that envelops this garden. With its most striking elements being made up of rocks and water, you’ll be transported to the basic elements of nature, yin and yang. The garden is especially designed so that those who enter will go through their personal renaissance as they pass the fountain representing the figure of birth and leave the stress of modern life behind them.
This quaint Chinese Garden situated on the outskirts of Santa Luċija, itself a peaceful town, was laid out in the early 1990s. Here life, with all its challenges and strife, is represented as a winding corridor at the northern end of the garden. The bamboo shoots represent contemplation while the great hall represents community. The garden’s courtyard with its fishpond, rock garden, and circular door will transport you to a magical place where you cannot help but be at peace with your self.
Maybe an oriental haven of tranquillity may not be the kind of thing you’d expect to find on a Mediterranean island known for its devout Christianity and volatile history – however it provides solid proof that Malta is full of surprises.
Be it as it may, the Chinese Garden of Serenity presents the ideal environment to allow your creativity to blossom, whether you happen to be sketching a lattice window, or reciting a favourite poem, or simply reflecting on the ripples left by a passing fish.
