About Beans Dearadh Taobh Istigh Caife

Is caife agus bialann é Beans i Ma On Shan, Hong Cong, a fhreastalaíonn caife, milseoga agus béilí éadroma. Clúdaíonn an taobh istigh 2263 troigh chearnach agus níl aon fhuinneoga ann, mar sin glacann an dearadh cruth uaimh criostail. Geallann dromchlaí frithchaiteacha agus soilsiú te an spás agus laghdaíonn siad an mothú dúnta. Cruthaíonn dromchla cruach dhosmálta ag tonnadh loch in aice le síleáil an bhealaigh isteach, agus déantar carraigeacha caola trí phriontáil thríthoiseach. Seasann crann sa lár agus fásann sé i dtreo an tsolais. Cuirtear an barra milseog in aice leis an mbealach isteach chun ordú a éascú.
