Minka (民家) at Kew Gardens

Isn't it handsome?! A big thank you goes out to yewtree3 for permission to post his photo of this minka located at Kew Gardens. You can learn more about the history and construction of this minka here and the surrounding bamboo garden here. I knew very little about Kew so I did a little exploring on their website and discovered it's over 300 acres in size. To learn more about minkas, in general, visit here.

I can understand why you would love peonies as you do.
So nice of you to visit. I've learned something new today...minkas. They are so serene. I'm looking forward to visiting your link to learn more.
Best,
