| Liyuan Garden |
|
Located 2.5 kilometers to the southwest of Wuxi City in Jiangsu Province,
Liyuan Garden is one of the famous gardens for lake scenery in South
China. It consists of two parts, the original Liyuan Garden and Yuzhuang
Garden.
Liyuan Garden is surrounded by water on three sides. Its central
part is covered with winding paths and rockeries in myriad shapes
with numerous twists and turns, resembling multi-color clouds hovering
overhead. Its eastern part is graced with a thousand-step-long corridor,
which serpentines along the zigzag lake shore on one side and on
the other side, a wall aligned with 89 window openings latticed
with different designs and patterns cherishing the characteristics
of architectural arts of the Chinese nation. Yuzhuang Garden dominates
its western part.
Main buildings include the hill house of hundred flowers and four
pavilions surrounded with flower plants symbolizing the four seasons.
Spring Pavilion is encircled by the plum blossom, Summer Pavilion,
the oleander, Autumn Pavilion, the sweet-scented osmanthus, and
Winter Pavilion, the winter-sweet. |
