Grassland in the park 紀念公園的大草地

It is the only park in Hong Kong to be named for a Chinese historic figure, because Shue Yat sen lived in Central and Western District. 

The footprints of Sun Yat Sen was recorded on the ground in the park, because he lived in the district for a long period of time. He was a student of Queen's College and the University of Hong Kong. 

The most unbelieveable thing is I have ever seen a big piece of grassland was located in the crowded urban area ! ! ! It is a good place for having picnic and playing kite !! It is relaxing and you even can lay down on the grassland and look to the sky. 

Please visit http://zh.wikipedia.org/wiki/%E4%B8%AD%E5%B1%B1%E7%B4%80%E5%BF%B5%E5%85%AC%E5%9C%92 to get more information ! !
