It felt quite strange to be walking around a place with such historical significance – if it was the real garden. It was small and not much of a garden but some of those old gnarly olive trees might just have been around back in biblical times.











The last part of the journey up the mountain was on a funicular. At the top was the 36.57-metre-tall (120 ft) bronze statue of Guanyin (Kuan Yin), the Goddess of Mercy.
In these days of wars and threats we sure need some Mercy!!
