The simple wood handcrafted household utensils reflected the earlier living and their basic needs.Another notes on the Chi Lin Nummery:
"Chi Lin Nunnery was founded in the 1934 and provides great cultural, educational, religious, and elderly care in Hong Kong. This great structure stands on an eight acre piece of land, houses a lotus pond rock garden of Zen style, 16 Buddhist halls, and ten thousand Buddhist pagodas.
The building was built with Canadian imported cedar wood, and one thing that makes it so interesting is that Chinese artisans hand carved the pieces like jigsaw puzzles – amazingly not a nail was used to build it!"
