Walled Garden- University of Nottingham

We discovered a Walled Garden in the university grounds. It was just like a secret garden right smack in the middle of buildings, tucked away so that no one can see it. It was lucky that we stumbled upon it. Once you enter the gate, you find so many beautiful flowers forming the square behind the tall hedges obscuring your view of the garden. Then, in the middle, there is a lovely well surrounded by lavender. 



Just look at the dew drops!








Enjoying all the flowers as summer is coming to an end. Time flies. You become even more aware of how fast time passes in seasonal countries since there are more markers. Your brain goes: Oh my gosh! It's autumn again??!



Love this shot. These flowers point downwards. Looking at this shot makes me feel like I'm Alice walking through the garden talking to the giant flowers. 
'♫ All the flowers... they would sit and talk to me for hours.... when I'm lonely in the world of my own '


Shades of pink and fuschia. Nature's immense colours always point me to the Creator and the source of such creativity and detail. 



Scores of lavender beckon you to fall asleep as the gentle winds whisk you away into fields of green. I believe the Sandman (if there ever is one- would have his bag of sand infused with lavender).


Summer is almost over.... and I'm still in my Kathmandu!


 I also finally learnt how to ride a bicycle! Yes I know, I'm 20 something and I just learnt how to ride a bike! Still, I'm so proud of myself for having done it in 1 and a half hours! Haha! Still need tons of practice though. Thank you my darling for being such an amazing teacher.  ♥
