先在大埔火車站乘 64K 巴士, 在梧桐寨站下車. 旁有指示牌提示上山往萬德苑之路. (白牛石出發會經過梧桐寨村, 如不想經過梧桐寨村, 便於梧桐寨下車直接上山.)

We took KMB bus no. 64K @ Taipo Railway station, and then got off @ Ng Tung Chai bus-stop.
There're road signs showing the way to Man Tak Yuen Monastery.

(You can also start from Pak Ngau Shek, which is the previous bus-stop. If you start from Pak Ngau Shek, you'll pass Ng Tung Chai Village. If you don't want to walk inside the village, then you can start from Ng Tung Chai bus-stop.)

山下的梧桐寨村, 沿萬德徑走, 可到達萬德苑.

Ng Tung Chai village @ the bottom of the slope! We walked through Man Tak Path for the monastery.

萬德苑在此. 我們先從道觀旁的小徑走進"大帽山郊野公園" 一看.!! 內有著名的 "梧桐寨群瀑", 不過今天太熱, 待秋天再來.

J

Here we are @ the entrance of Man Tak Yuen Monastery! First we went into "Tai Mo Shan Country Park" which is next to Man Tak Yuen Monastery for a look.
There's the famous "Ng Tung Chai Waterfall area" inside, with 4 big and beautiful waterfalls!! As it was very hot today, we'll come again for a visit later in Autumn.

梧桐寨群瀑的入口旁, 已有一條小小瀑布及美麗的 "萬德澗"!! 我們發現一小狗在小小瀑布下游泳, 牠很可愛, 還上來跟我玩.

J

There's a mini waterfall @ the entrance of the country park, for "Ng Tung Chai Waterfall area". Also with the beautiful "Man Tak Stream".
We found this lovely beagle swimming under the mini waterfall!! It was very friendly and even jumped up from the water to play with me.

從瀑布區返回萬德苑. 內有美麗的建築物, 花老B 還跟仙鶴合照.

J

Back to Man Tak Yuen Monastery for photos~ many beautiful pavillions here!! Tachibana san had a photo with the "Crane fairy".

經竹林下山, 返回 64K 巴士站, 到凌雲寺一探.

J

As we still had time, we walked downhill via the forest and back to the bus-stop. We took bus no. 64K again for Ling Wan Temple in Yuen Long.

乘 64K 巴士到凌雲寺一探~ 內有猛犬3-4 隻, 吠聲震撼山谷. 寺外有大池塘, 內有烏龜及很多青蛙.

J

We took bus no. 64K for Ling Wan Temple. There are 3-4 fierce dogs inside, with barking noises make the whole area "shaking"!!
There's a pond outside the temple, with lots of tortoises and frogs playing around.

凌雲寺的大門是鎖上的~ 難得今天有訪客, 有幸尾隨入內參觀. 寺內有一大座的觀音娘娘, 池中有很多鯉魚, 有些還會跳起來.

J

Ling Wan Temple is not open for outsiders~ we were very lucky that a group of visitors came, and we followed them to go inside!!
Boddisattva Guan-yin is at the middle of the monastery, with lots of carps in the pond, and some even "jumped" up from the water!!

原來這些便是曼陀羅, 很美!! 花老 B 很快給它迷住了.....(它是全棵都有毒的, 不要亂碰!!!)

J

Wooow!! Datura are so beautiful! Tachibana san was "drugged" (The whole plant is TOXIC, Don't touch!!!) ?????
