世內桃園

很久很以前,有一個花園,內裡滿佈奇珍異獸,奇山異石,又藏有許多妖魔鬼怪,堪稱為城內第一奇園,供市民遊玩。不過,人們總愛把它喚作「別墅」,因為奇園內建有一所別墅,乃奇園主人兩兄弟之住所。位處奇園中央,地基高出地面約三層樓高,有如城堡高高在上的感覺,紅牆綠瓦,庭院深深,生人勿近。

「別墅」長久以來深得民心,家家戶戶必有至少一張照片攝於此地。但於幾年前,兩兄弟卻把整個別墅賣給聞名於城內的怪獸工廠。怪獸工廠當然二話不說,把整個奇園夷為平地。從此,奇珍花園失去了奇珍,只剩下別墅,成為名副其實的「別墅」。


雖然「別墅」已失去了奇園,但它正前方的私人花園仍幸免於難。在怪獸充斥的維多利亞城,它,成為了極珍貴的桃花園。

說它是桃花園準沒錯,因為「別墅」正前方的確有兩棵桃花。一雙一對,又是桃花,想不到兩兄弟都頗為感情豐富。除了桃花,還有金黃色的木槿,即大紅花。大紅花成了金黃色,小女子未曾見過,真是孤陋寡聞,卻又覺不失其奇珍本色。在一棵灌木下,有一隻鹿媽媽帶著兩隻可愛的小鹿子,底著頭,啃著草,一副悠然自得狀。

園內除了花草,還有一個涼亭及一座塔。塔內置一旋轉樓梯,能通往地面。由樓梯頂部開始走,每旋轉一圈,就如穿越時空三十年,到達底部時剛好轉了三個圈,便穿越了差不多九十年的時間裂縫。兩扇鐵門一開,即回到現實--歡迎回來怪獸世界。

倘若他朝能有機會對外開放,我想親身經歷遠勝過文字及照片,特意沒放旋轉樓梯的照片,就是留有一點神秘感,以及留予多一點幻想空間啦!

I enjoy your narrative way guiding us steps by steps in & out this utopia, it felt like having taken a round trip :)

Is this utopia located in the New Territories? Which part?

For the stairs, you did a superb job in leaving rooms for imaginations, far better than show its photo up front.

No la, it's not open to public recently, but it is planned to open in the future. So hopefully we could have a chance to visit this place together!
