Common gardening techniques in China classical gardens;

First, suppress the scene

China's traditional art has always been implicit, so landscaping will never let people see the best scenery as soon as they enter the door, and the best scenery is often hidden behind. This is called "hiding before revealing", "suppressing before promoting" and "there is no way to recover the mountains and rivers, and there is another village in the dark". Only by restraining the scenery can the garden show its artistic charm.

For example, the entrance to the garden is often blocked by rockeries, which is called mountain suppression.

Second, add scenery.

When the scenic spots are far away, or natural mountains, or cultural towers, if there are no other scenic spots in the middle or nearby for transition, it will appear empty and without layers; If there are flowers and trees in the middle and nearby as the transitional scenery, the scenery looks layered and beautiful, and the flowers and trees in the middle are called adding scenery.

For example, when people stand under weeping willows on the south bank of Kunming Lake in the Summer Palace in Beijing and watch the scenery of Wanshou Mountain, Wanshou Mountain is lifelike because of the upside-down willows as decoration.

The landscape gardens in China, represented by the classical gardens in the south of the Yangtze River and the royal gardens in the north, are the unique and remarkable achievements of China traditional architecture in the history of world garden development, and are the precious historical and cultural heritage of all mankind.

China's classical garden art is an important heritage of human civilization. It is recognized as the mother of world gardens, a miracle of world art, and its gardening techniques are admired and imitated by western countries, which has set off a "China garden fever" in western countries. China's gardening art takes the pursuit of the natural realm, and "although it is man-made, it is natural" as the ultimate and highest purpose of aesthetic purport.
