Chinese visitors enjoy a real Aussie Experience
In April this year Katandra Gardens of Wandin received a visit from a group from the China Academic Degrees and; Graduate Education Development Centre who had come to communicate with the Australia Universities.
The delegates really love the opportunity to experience Australian life in a natural setting. At Katandra Gardens the visitors were able to see some of Australia unique wildflowers in one of the country's best native plant gardens.
Katandra Gardens is a world class garden and houses an amazing collection of native flora from all states of Australia. Whilst no-one in Victoria seems to recognise Wandin but thankfully the Chinese visitors found their way and to cap off the day the visitors had a real "Aussie Barbecue" and showed their appreciation when Mr Feng Zhimin, Assistant President, Ningbo University presented Bob and Dot the owners of Katandra Gardens with gifts of a fine Chinese silk scarf and an exquisite Chinese Bell instrument.
We look forward to more of China's delightful visitors.
