Yuyuan Garden (China)


Yuyuan garden, the Garden of Leisurely Repose, was built in the Ming dynasty. It is the only Ming garden left in the city. The entire compound consists of over 30 halls and is divided into six regions by tall white walls. It was reportedly built in 1559 by the wealthy official Pan Yunduan to please his parents in their old age.




I love the dragon. The ridge of its back ran down the top of the wall all the way around the garden.


Ahgg…It’s got me!!!!!

The tea house in the middle of the garden.




Check out all the coy.
