概要

クイックファクト: Stepping into the garden, winding corridors, small bridges over flowing water, and antique carved windows divide the limited space into quiet corners waiting to be explored. Light and shadow move like turning pages on the stone paths. Tea drinkers can often be seen quietly chatting in old riverside shops. The crisp clinking of porcelain cups mixed with the mist rising from the lotus ponds creates a unique urban flavor.

見どころ: Here's a secret. Pan Yunduan devoted nearly 18 years creating the garden for his father. The famous rockery is stacked with over a hundred uniquely shaped stones. Up close, you can even smell the damp moss between the stones. Tea lovers often line up with ten or so people in front of the lakeside pavilion, sitting by wooden windows to sip a hot cup of tea. The aroma of malt rising from the hot brew separates the market's noise into two layers.

インサイダーヒント

Arrive before 9:30 am to avoid the busiest crowds from Yuyuan Bazaar.
Wear comfortable shoes, pathways and stone steps can be uneven and slippery when wet.
Head to the northern pond and the Exquisite Jade Rock area for the best photo compositions and reflections.
Skip the busiest teahouses on weekends and explore smaller pavilions for calmer views.
