The Hanging Gardens



Deriving their name from their usage subsequent to the feudal feuds of the early 17th Century, these gardens, where early residents washed and dried clothing (thus the name), feature an array of fronds and blossoms unique to this area alone. As we traipsed through the fauna, my aunt noticed several animals that bore a resemblance to rabbits but were much too large. Although they resembled rabbits, we later learned the locals called them ponies. This prompted my aunt to lapse into stories of her youth when her father would leave home early to scour the countryside for food.
