What to Expect

Dating back to the Ming Dynasty, the Humble Administrator's Garden is a gem of classical Chinese gardens and has been listed as a World Heritage Site.

 

Spanning a considerable area, it is renowned for its elegant layout and delicate design. Water plays a crucial role in the garden, with extensive interconnected water bodies occupying approximately one-third of its total area. The clear water is decorated by charming pavilions standing gracefully on it, while the arched bridges add a touch of gracefulness, presenting a serene and idyllic panorama.

 

There are also numerous rockeries crafted with precision. These rock formations, combined with lush trees and colorful flowers, form a variety of enchanting landscapes. The corridors wind through the garden, leading visitors from one beautiful spot to another, as if guiding them through a wonderland of art. It showcases the essence of traditional Chinese gardening philosophy that emphasizes the harmony between humans and nature.
