Yes, this is the reason why had to pay $5 to enter Chinese Gardens yesterday hahaha.

Btw, you need to pay $5 to enter Chinese Gardens right now up till the Festival I think, they have closed the gardens for "renovations" why I do not know - to me it has always been an excuse to collect money. The idea is that the gardens are closed, but oooh the Tortoise Museum is open so if you want to go in you give the Tortoise Museum business. =)
