The Marble Boat. In need of a bit of TLC, I have to say. There is a copy of this structure in the Chinese Gardens in Singapore
And a real boat on the lake. The 400 foot Treasure Junks of the eunuch fleet commanders that Zhu Di sent to discover the world, were often reported as ‘floating houses’ by those who first saw them in places as far apart as Australia and Florida. And that was in 1421/2
A sweet moment, posing for mum. Black and white? I don’t know why! Just appealed.
