Can I take you somewhere beautiful? Let me introduce you to the China Jade Garden, which is another beauty spot around Ningbo. Named after a huge jade stone (below), which is in the middle of a lake, covered by mountains, beautiful temples and a look-out tower.

The huge jade stone in the middle of the lake (behind the look-out tower).

The entrance in Chinese design.

Most of the sculptures here made from jade. I love this frog, but I would never kiss him :-)

Lovely bridge "network" on the lake.

Green green everywhere...

So Chinese...

The beautiful temple complex, captured from top of the look-out tower (which was so high I thought I'd never make it).

Isn't it breath-taking?

I loved this sculpture...

...and this small tower too (I know the picture is not straight, I have problem with taking straight pictures :-)

Lake with a sculpture.

As I already wrote, it's so many wonderful places around Ningbo (China). A place like this can fill me up with positive energy for months. Just get out sometimes wherever you live. Nature has some magical power which can not substitute anything else.

Dongqian Lake is a wonderland outside Ningbo. Just half an hour drive and you'll find yourself in a different world. It's a great program for these first days of spring or a facetious Sunday like today. I took these pictures last summer. It's time to share!

Beautiful and peaceful.

I always filled up with energy and peace when I visit a place like this. Also it's inspires me in many ways.

The lake is huge and it takes a day to walk around there, if you want to see everything. But it will be a memory for a lifetime!

Buddha sculpcture in the middle of the water. Wonderful.

Chinese architecture design makes me feel balanced and calm.

These kitty cats are in love with each other...

There are temples, parks and sculptures around the lake.

There are a lot of beautiful places like this around Ningbo and almost everywhere in China. That's why I love living here so much. Doesn't matter where I turn my head, I'll always find beauty. Hope I'll use my time here in the best way to see as much as I can.
