Monastery garden

When I need time to think about my life, I love to go to the monastery garden in St. Gallen. The monastery doesn't exist anymore but it's the most beautiful place in my city. When I enter the monastery garden, I can hear the silence around there. There is no wind. You can just feel the sunbeam on your skin. I walk around and sit down on a bench. Especially in springtime you can smell the fresh grass and the growing flowers behind you. In front of me is the very beautiful and grandiose cathedral. Every quarter hour their big bells are ringing. It's a sound from heaven. I'm not very religious, but on this place I can feel something special, something different. The monastery garden is for me the best place to relax in my lunchtime or after work.
