秋高氣爽, 雖然仍有少許熱, 不過今天我們仍到荃灣山上的芙蓉山一遊, 先往芙蓉山新村一看.
Autumn has come!! Although it was still a little bit hot, we went for a walk @ Fu Yung Shan New Village @ the hillside of Tsuen Wan this afternoon.




芙蓉山福慧寺.
Fuk Wai Temple.






返回芙蓉山新村, 在垃圾收集站後面, 有小路通往老圍村的圓玄學院及西方寺.
After the visit for Fuk Wai Temple, we were back to Fu Yung Shan New Village. There is a footpath (downstairs) at the back of the garbage collection point, which is leading to Lo Wai Village. You can go to Yuen Yuen Institue (a Tao Monastery) and Western Monastery from there.




芙蓉山新村內的古老石屋.

沿著綠色圍欄走, 便可到達老圍.
Just stick to the green handrail and go straight for Lo Wai Village.


看到這座建築物, 老圍在望.
When you can see this old building, you are very close to Lo Wai.








走過陰暗的長廊, 這裡便是東覺禪林. 已經到了老圍村.
We walked through this dark corridor (with yellow handrail) and now we were outside Tung Kok Zen Monastery. We had arrived Lo Wai Village.








東覺禪林門外, 便是老圍村最著名的 "三疊潭"
There is a stream outside Tung Kok Zen Monastery, which is very well-known in Lo Wai area --- "Sam Dip Tam" stream.


老圍村內的潮音淨院.
This red temple is "Chiu Yam Ching Yuen" (meaning: Temple of the tidal wave sound)












老圍內的特色寺院 -- 香海船廟!!! 寺院以船的造型建成, 旁邊是三疊潭, 小橋流水, 景色甚佳.
A beautiful temple of Lo Wai -- Heung Hoi Ship Temple!!! It is a Buddhist monastery in the shape of a ship, with Sam Dip Tam stream next to it, looks like sailing!!






走到西方寺外.
Now we were @ Western Monastery.


一訪卧佛
With Inclining Buddha.






寺內很多觀世音菩薩像.
Statues of Avalokitesvara Bodhisattvas everywhere!!


美麗的亭台樓閣
Beautiful pavilion.








到處佈滿生氣.
Plants, lotus flowers and tortoises of the temple.








經老圍村往荃灣市中心方向下山, 到賽馬會中藥園一看.
We walked via Lo Wai Village for Tsuen Wan Town Centre -- and we had a visit to the "Jockey Club Lo Wai Chinese Herb Garden".
