Classical Gardens of Suzhou

Classical Gardens of Suzhou

Suzhou is located in the water town of the south of the Yangtze River, and the Classical Gardens of Suzhou, China are collectively known as Suzhou Classical Gardens. Many of these gardens are included in the World Heritage Site. Whether they were designed and built by literati or dignitaries, the gardens were meticulously designed and constructed with great care and skill. These factors greatly contributed to the development of Suzhou's gardens. In terms of the survival of Suzhou's gardens, from the magnificent Liuzheng Garden and Humble Administrator's Garden to the small gardens of a hill and a ravine, there are not only a large number of gardens, but also a good number of them. Most of these gardens are located in the city, especially in the area between Gate of Heaven and Guanqian Street, followed by Northeast Street. Among the remaining gardens in Suzhou, private gardens account for almost 90% of the total number of gardens, except for the Pavilion of Surging Waves, a famous pavilion, a few ancestral halls and Buddhist temples. The Pavilion of Surging Waves dates back to the middle of the Northern Song Dynasty, the Lion Grove to the end of the Yuan Dynasty, and the rest, such as the Humble Administrator's Garden and the Art Garden, to the middle and end of the Ming Dynasty. What really impresses people about Suzhou's classical gardens is not only the beauty of the mountains, water, plants and buildings themselves, but also their relationship with each other.
