Stunning & Superbly Serene Chinese Gardens

1. Koi at Yuyuan Garden
China. Most Chinese gardens have a water feature like a pond and several offshooting streams, filled with goldfish, carp, or mandarin ducks. The water is calming while reflecting the constantly changing sky above, and the rocks are solid and unchanging. Chinese gardens are places with gorgeous beauty and offer cool and quiet serenity.



2. Dreaming of the Tiger
Hupao Spring in Hangzhou, China. Chinese gardens are built not planted to be a solitary place or to be a place for “social contemplation of nature.” Chinese gardens are culturally important, serving as a semi-public extension of the house, meant for retreat, for festivity, for study of poetry, or even for romance. 


3. Hangzhou pagoda bridge in China.Chinese gardens are meant to be aesthetically pleasing to all the senses while managing to “create a sense of the infinite in the finite.” 

4. Beihai Park is one of the oldest and most authentically preserved imperial gardens in China. The Bai Ta (White Dagoba), could be called the symbol of Beihai Park. The body of the Dagoba is made of white stones. 


5. Yuyuan Garden
Yuyuan Garden looks like a wonderful and peaceful spot to reflect and relax. In reality, it is probably crowded with tourists.
