There are many popular flower parks in Japan, and many Hong Kong people make special trips to visit them.
The Yuen Long Park, located in the "Great Northwest", occupies a large area and has large grassland for the public to relax. The member of the Yen Long District Councilor Chen Jinglun said on Facebook that he is studying with the Leisure and Cultural Services Department to beautify the area to see if it can be built like Japan. The Bodu Juan Garden.
In addition, he pointed out that 50 new maple trees have been planted in the park, and the flow of people to watch the red leaves in Taitang may be diverted in the future.
Earlier, at the Yuen Long District Council meeting, 1.89 million was allocated for greening and facility improvement projects in Yuen Long District. Among them, 200,000 were proposed for beautification of Yuen Long Park.
Yuen Long District Councillor Chen Jinglun pointed out on his Facebook a few days ago (19th) that he, together with another Yuen Long District Councillor, Li Kwok-yong, and LCSD arboriculture experts and park managers, visited Yuen Long Park and exchanged and shared information in the park. The feasibility of planting trees and flowers within.
In his post, he pointed out that the slope of one of the slopes in the park is high, and the citizens seldom use it for picnics or sunbathing. Therefore, he believes that conditions can be used to build the themed Bodu Juan Garden. He described it as "trying may not be successful", but "don't try forever." There will be no chance to happen."
Chen Jinglun also pointed out that although he knew from the traffic what restrictions and problems the LCSD had to face, he also hoped that the relevant team would understand that Hong Kong people need some parks with strong themes.
In addition, he also pointed out that when the LCSD appeared on the other side of the hill, dozens of pink-flowered wind bell trees and 50 new maple trees had been planted. In recent years, Taitang has been crowded like crucian carp during the red leaf season, even for the villagers. This brings difficulties. In the future, Yuen Long Park may be able to attract some visitors, hoping to divert the flow of people.
