How to understand the characteristics of private gardens in China, combined with Suzhou gardens.

The following is a detailed introduction of various gardens in Suzhou. Take some time to have a look.

According to the experience of netizens, I bought a package ticket and entered the Humble Administrator's Garden. The Humble Administrator's Garden was built in the Ming Dynasty, and Wang was the first owner of the Garden. During Jiajing and Zhengde years, he lived in the official residence to supervise the empire. Dissatisfied with his official career in his later years, he dismissed from office and returned to his hometown. He bought land to build a garden and named it Humble Administrator's Garden by borrowing the meaning of "My Humble Administrator's Garden" in "Idle Residence Fu". The main attractions in the park are: Lan Xuetang, Furong Pavilion, Xiangxiang Pavilion, Kuangjian Pavilion, Yuanxiangtang, Xiaocanglang, Liuting and Fucui Pavilion.

The whole park is divided into four parts: East, Middle, West and Residential. Folk houses are typical Suzhou folk houses, which are now arranged as exhibition halls of garden museums. The eastern part is bright and cheerful, with Pinggang Mountain, pine lawn and bamboo house Qushui as the main areas. The main attractions are: Blue School, Zhuoyunfeng, Furong Pavilion, Tian Quan Pavilion and Xiangxiang Pavilion. The central part is the essence of Humble Administrator's Garden, with a pool area of 1/3. The swimming pool is dominated by water with lush trees and natural scenery. Buildings with different shapes and scattered heights are arranged at the water's edge, with clear priorities. The main attractions are: Yuanxiangtang, Xiangzhou, Hefeng Pavilion, Jianshanlou, Xiaofeihong and Loquat Garden. The main building in the west is the 36-yuan Yang Pavilion near the residential side, with an arc-shaped pool, which is characterized by the separation of pavilions and terraces, the ups and downs of cloisters, the reflection of water waves, unique interest and gorgeous decoration. The main attractions are: 36 Yuanyang Pavilion, Reflection Pavilion, who to sit with, Water Gallery, etc.

Dongyuan introduction

Blue School: It is the main hall of the East, and its name is taken from Li Bai's poem "Independent heaven and earth, cool breeze in Lan Xue". It was built in the eighth year of Chongzhen in Ming Dynasty (1635). According to the owner Wang Xinyi's "Guiyuan House", Lan Xuetang is a five-tree thatched cottage. "The laurel trees in the east and west are the screens, and the hills behind them are planted with plum blossoms. There is bamboo outside the plum blossom, which is close to the monk's house, and the Sanskrit sounds come from bamboo. Quiet environment. There are two white pine trees in front of the hall, Gu Zhuo, with bamboo forests on the wall, exquisite lakes and stones, and green grass sandwiched between them, which are connected with the east and west courtyard walls. This hall faces south and has three compartments. The plaque of "Lan Xuetang" is hung high and the long window is placed on the ground. There is a screen door in the middle of the hall. In the south of Shamen, there is a panoramic view of Qi Diao Humble Administrator's Garden, and in the north of Shamen, there is a picture of bamboo. All adopt the traditional Suzhou Qi Diao craft, and the partition skirts on both sides of the screen door are engraved with landscapes.

Yunfeng: To the north of Lanxuetang, the peaks stand in the shade of trees and bamboos, and the two peaks in northern Shanxi stand side by side, named "Lian Bi". Zhuan Yunfeng and Lianbi Peak are the scenic spots in the garden, belonging to the garden. In "Returning to the Garden", there is a pool in front of Lan. "There are peaks in Chinan, and the clouds are decorated with trees, named Yunfeng. The two peaks on the left side of the pool stand side by side like sails. This is the so-called Lianbi Peak. " These two peaks are the works of Chen Siyun, a famous rockfill artist in the late Ming Dynasty. The lake stone used is exquisite and exquisite, taking Zhao Yuan's landscape painting as a model. The shape of the decorated Yunfeng gradually becomes larger from bottom to top, and its top is particularly powerful, like a cloud, independent and unsupported. 1943 that summer night, Zhu Yunfeng suddenly fell. Later, under the guidance of landscape expert Wang Xingbo, it was transformed into this exquisite mountain peak, which is as high as two feet. Now this mountain is mottled with moss and vines, and there is no lack of ancient meaning.

Lotus Pavilion: Pavilion is a beautiful architectural form in ancient China. It is composed of the surrounding scenery, and its form is flexible and changeable. The roof of Furong Pavilion is a rolling shed resting on the top of the mountain, with four corners flying, half built on the shore and half reaching out to the water. The sky stands on the water waves and stands by the water, which is beautiful and wonderful. This pavilion faces a wide pool with clear water, which is a good place to enjoy lotus in summer. Strolling through the lotus pavilion, leaning against the railing and looking around, I saw that the pool was full of green and pink, and the romantic beauty was like a slender fairy looking forward to beautiful eyes in the blue waves. The breeze suddenly set off a green wave, sending bursts of lotus fragrance ... appreciate the beauty, elegance and noble character of lotus.

Tianquan Pavilion: It is an octagonal double-eaved pavilion with high eaves and a cloister outside. Solemn and simple, there are sitting sills between columns, which can be seated and rewarded. Surrounded by lawns, flowers and trees are sparse. There is a small slope in Tingbeipinggang with lush trees. This pavilion is named "Tian Quan" because there is a well under it. This well does not dry up all the year round, and the water quality is sweet, so it is called "Tian Quan". According to Qianlong's Changzhou County Records, there was a temple named Dahong Temple in this area during the Dade period of the Yuan Dynasty. Another hundred years later, monk Yuze lived here and built a "Dong Village". There was a well named "Tian Quan" before Lent. Suzhou is a water town with many rivers, bridges and wells, but few of them have been handed down in history. When Wang Xinyi built Guiyuan, he kept the well and added some pastoral scenery to the garden.

Guan: It refers to Daoxiang. In the past, all the walls were farmland. In the harvest season, the autumn wind brings bursts of fragrant rice, which makes people ecstatic, hence the name. Xiangxiang Pavilion is the main building in the east, facing the mountain and water, with a single eaves structure and spacious and bright interior. There are 48 boxwood carving on the long window skirt, one is The West Chamber, and the other is Yi Ru in Today, according to experts' research. Among them, The Story of the West Chamber was published with scenes such as "Zhang Sheng climbing over the wall to welcome Yuanyang", "copying red flowers" and "seeing off in the pavilion", which were finely carved, rich in layers and lifelike. As the sun sets, a touch of afterglow falls on the floor-to-ceiling windows of Xiangge. Coupled with the exquisite woodcarving of the skirt, the incense hall is decorated with simplicity and elegance, which makes it interesting.

Han Qing Pavilion: There are many changes in garden buildings, pavilions and pavilions. The pavilion is a small house with only a roof and no walls. It is exquisite and light, and generally consists of three parts: roof, column and abutment. In the garden, you can enjoy the scenery, and it can also provide people with a place to rest, cool and shelter from the rain. Humble Administrator's Garden is not only numerous in pavilions, but also in various forms. Hanqing Pavilion is located in a corner with a narrow space. But the gardener built a combined semi-pavilion with a tall white wall as the bottom, with a master and two slaves. The main pavilion stands out from the water like a waterside pavilion, and the auxiliary pavilions on both sides recede slightly and spread to the left and right, like a corridor rather than a corridor. The main pavilion gives two scoops and the auxiliary pavilion gives one scoop. The whole pavilion is like a phoenix spreading its wings, adding a bit of luster to the originally dull and monotonous wall. Sit by the pavilion, beside the beauty, the sky is shining in Shui Ying, koi fish is swimming, and the lotus is swaying.

Introduction of Zhongyuan

Rainbow Pavilion: Sitting on the straight corridor to the west of the cloister, it is east-west, the cloister at the back twists and turns, and the Shui Mu in front is far away. It is an excellent viewing spot after entering the China Garden. On the right side of the pavilion is a secluded place of black bamboo. In front of the pavilion, there is a small Qingshi Bridge called "Leaning on Hongqiao". Bridge railings and stones all reflect the Ming style and seem to be the remains of the humble administrator's garden in the Ming Dynasty. Standing in the pavilion, the water in the middle is open, and the curved bridge divides the water surface. In midsummer, the pool is full of lotus flowers, red flowers and green clothes, which is a Jiangnan style. Deep in the shade, you can vaguely see a beautiful and exquisite pagoda. This is borrowing scenery to borrow the North Temple Tower, which is more than 1000 meters away from the garden, into the garden. It is a good example of borrowing scenery in Borrowing Scenery.

Wuzhu Youzhai: Wuzhu Youzhai is a square pavilion with unique architectural style and ingenious conception, which is the main scenic spot in central Dong Chi. The pavilion is surrounded by cloisters, red columns and white walls, cornices and upturned corners, backed by promenades, facing Guangchi, and surrounded by phoenix trees and bamboo. The wonder of the pavilion is that there are four round holes on the white wall around it, with holes in the ring and holes in the ring. From different angles, you can see the strange landscape of overlapping circles, rings and rings. The four round cave doors are transparent, daylighting and elegant, and they also form four beautiful frames of flower windows, small bridges, flowing water, lakes and mountains, and bamboo trees, which are meaningful. The tablet of "secluded bamboo" is Wen Zhiming style. The couplet "Take advantage of the cool breeze and bright moon, watch the flowing water and the mountains" was inscribed for Zhao, a famous calligrapher in the late Qing Dynasty. Couplets use two words to point out the intimate feelings of human beings living in harmony with romantic and nature; The second couplet uses one movement and one quietness, one emptiness and one reality, which contrast each other and set each other off.

Xiang Xue Wei Yun Pavilion: Xiang Xue refers to plum blossoms. Wei Yun refers to lush flowers and trees. This pavilion is suitable for enjoying plums in early spring. Plums are planted next to the pavilion, and the fragrance is floating. Surrounded by green bamboos and lush trees, it winds in the stream, which is quite interesting in urban forests. The pavilion is rectangular and located on a mound in the west and east of the pool. Its appearance is simple and lively. The "Birds and Flowers" plaque in the pavilion was inscribed by Qian Juntao, a contemporary painter.

Justin: There are many loquat trees in the garden. Loquat sprouts in autumn, blooms in winter, bears fruit in spring and matures in summer, which contains the breath of four seasons and forms countless golden pills. Jiashige not only praises the famous gardens in the south of the Yangtze River, but also symbolizes the joy of harvest. There is a window hole in the center of the pavilion wall, and the outer side of the window hole is Taihu stone, with wintersweet and banana beside it, forming a natural three-dimensional picture. Passing through the east gate of loquat garden, Jiashi Pavilion and Xiang Xue Weiyun Pavilion form a group of scenes, which is one of the artistic techniques of gardening.

Tingyuxuan

In the east of Jiashi Pavilion, it is connected with the surrounding buildings by a curved corridor. There is clear water in front of the porch and lotus flowers are planted; There are banana bamboos by the pool, and a bunch of bananas are planted under the porch, which set each other off. Li, a poet of the Southern Tang Dynasty in the Five Dynasties, said: "Listen to the rain and enter the autumn bamboo, leaving the monk to overwrite the old chess"; Song Dynasty poet Yang Wanli's poem "Autumn Rain Sighs" said: "Banana leaves are half yellow and lotus leaves are green, and two autumn rains sound"; Zhou Shoujuan, a modern Suzhou gardener, wrote the poem "Banana": "When the rain falls on banana leaves, I still hear the sound of jade in my dreams." Here are plantains, bamboos and lotus leaves. No matter spring, summer, autumn and winter, as long as it is rainy night, because the rain falls on different plants, people who listen to the rain have different mentality, and they can all hear the rain with different tastes, and the realm is wonderful and unique.

Haitang Spring House: The promenade is surrounded by rainbows, and the independent courtyard separated by the flower wall on the east side of Linglong Pavilion is Haitang Spring House. A unique scroll-shaped brick forehead is embedded in the south wall of the courtyard. There are several begonia plants in the hospital. In the early spring, bloom was as bright as brocade, as shy as a small jasper, and as beautiful as others. The literati eulogized emotionally. The ground of the courtyard is inlaid with green, red and white pebbles, forming a pattern of begonia. The decorative patterns of tea tables in hospitals are all begonia patterns. There are scenic spots everywhere, the courtyard is small, quiet and elegant, and it is an ideal place to study and rest.

Yuanxiangtang: Yuanxiangtang is a square temple, which is the main building in the middle of Humble Administrator's Garden. It was built on the former site of Zheng Deruo Bookstore in Qing Dynasty and Ming Dynasty, and the foundation of Qingshiwu was the original object at that time. It was built on the water and rested on the top of the mountain, with a single eaves and three rooms wide. The platform in the north of Tang Tang is spacious, and the water in the pool is big and clear. The lotus pond is wide, with a red skirt and a green cover, and its fragrance is pleasant. The name of the hall is taken from the famous sentence "Xiang Yuan Qing" in Zhou Dunyi's Love Lotus. The water is full of lotus, so it is named after it. In summer, the lotus leaf field by the pool is a good place to enjoy lotus. The owner of the garden used flowers as a metaphor to express his noble sentiments. The hall is decorated with transparent and exquisite glass floor-to-ceiling windows with neat specifications. Because the long windows are empty, there are all kinds of interesting scenery around, and mountains and water shadows are in front of us, just like watching a long scroll of mountains and rivers. The interior furnishings are elegant and exquisite.

Xiao: Suzhou is a water town, and Humble Administrator's Garden is a water garden. Where there is water, there is a bridge. There are stone bridges and arch bridges in the Humble Administrator's Garden, and the shape of Hong Fei Jr. is very special. It is the only covered bridge in Suzhou gardens. It was named after Bao Zhao's poem "Baiyun" in the Southern and Northern Dynasties and the Song Dynasty, "The flying rainbow overlooks Qin, and the fog is light and the string is light". The scarlet bridge fence is reflected in the water, and the water waves are sparkling like flying rainbows, hence the name. Rainbow is a colorful bridge across the earth after a storm. The ancients used rainbows as a metaphor for bridges, with good intentions. It is not only a channel connecting the water surface and the land, but also a unique landscape centered on the bridge. Xiao Fei Hongqiao is a three-span Liang Shi, slightly arched and shaped like a figure of eight. There are swastika guardrails, three rooms and eight columns on both sides of the bridge deck, covered with verandahs, and the eaves are decorated with upside-down lintels. The two ends of the bridge are connected with the curved corridor, which is a beautiful covered bridge.

Xiao Canglang: Xiao Canglang took the Northern Song Dynasty? Canglang Pavilion in Su Shunqin is called Pavilion, which means seclusion. The pavilion is three rooms wide, with windows in the south, sills in the north and water on both sides. Its shape is unique, like a house, like a boat, like a bridge, and it is a water pavilion on the water. Shui Ge crossed the pond and divided the water surface again, which made the tail of the Central Plains seem to be continuous and superb in artistic techniques. Surrounded by pavilions and cloisters, it forms an open and quiet water courtyard. Once upon a time, there were many literati in the ancient city of Suzhou. Whether it is a luxury mansion or a general house, they pay special attention to the decoration of a small space. This small space is a courtyard, and the water courtyard is a unique little Ranbo. On the one hand, it reflects the customs of Jiangnan water town. On the other hand, because of the water landscaping, we borrow scenery from each other inside and outside the courtyard, creating a particularly cool environment.

Song Feng Shui Ge: Pine, bamboo and plum are called "Three Friends of Old Cold" in China traditional culture. In the literati's freehand brushwork garden, I especially like to plant such plants to express my master's thoughts and feelings. Pine trees do not wither when they are cold, and the seasons are evergreen. The ancients compared them to people with noble moral sentiments. Gu Zhuo's figure is often depicted in paintings, which is one of the main tree species in China gardens. Songfeng Shuige, also known as "Listening to Songfeng", is a place to watch Songtao and listen to waves. This water pavilion has a square roof and a closed space. Through the small door between the corridors, the other three sides adopt the structure of half wall and half window. The eaves of the roof are very large, and the cornices are particularly high, showing a graceful and elegant style. The whole building does not adopt the regular direction of due south and due north, but inclines at a 45-degree angle, and it can be hung on the water in the air, which is sheltered from light and breathable, and is most suitable for viewing in summer. There are several black pines planted beside the pavilion. When the wind blows, the pine branches move away, and the sound of pines and colors is ready. This is a unique scenery.

Xiangzhou: Xiangzhou is a "ship" structure with two cabins. It is elegant and free, and its posture is reflected in the water, which is more beautiful and elegant. Xiangzhou entrusted the ideals and feelings of literati. Xiangzhou, with the allusion of "Zhou Fang" written by Qu Yuan, contains the sentence of "Take Zhou Fang, take Xi Du Ruo, get his inheritance and have his daughter" in Chu Ci. In ancient times, vanilla was often used as a metaphor for lofty people. It is also appropriate to use lotus landscape to describe vanilla here. Among many Zhou Shi in China classical gardens, Xiangzhou in Humble Administrator's Garden is probably the most beautiful one. The bow is a platform, the front cabin is a pavilion, the middle cabin is a pavilion, and the stern is a pavilion. Pavilions and pavilions rise from the ground, with soft lines and appropriate proportions, which reminds people of the ancient scenery of Suzhou, Hangzhou, Yangzhou and mountains and rivers. Xiangzhou is located at the water's edge, just at the intersection of the east-west ocean current and the north-south river channel. Surrounded by water on three sides and facing the shore on the other, we boarded the "ship" with a springboard composed of three stone bars standing at the bow, and the blue waves rippled around it, making people feel relaxed and happy. The scorching sun, scorching summer, a gust of wind here, my eyes are cold. Xiangzhou bow has an inscription by Wen Zhiming, and later generations also wrote an inscription for it. Dry boat Xiangzhou, elegant, exquisite and fascinating, makes people feel a pursuit of noble personality.

Lotus Wind Pavilion on All Sides: The pavilion is named after the lotus flower and is located on an island in the middle of the garden, surrounded by water. The lotus flowers in the lake are beautifully planted, and the willow branches by the lake are swaying. The pavilion has a single eaves and six corners, and all sides are transparent. There are columns in the pavilion: "Lotus flowers on all sides and willows on all sides, and autumn water in the pond is a well." It is very suitable for use here. In particular, the word "wall" in couplets is well used. The pavilion is the most open building. There is no wall between columns, so the sight is unobstructed and it feels empty and transparent. Although there is no fence, weeping willows flourish on three sides and are surrounded by Zhou Furong on all sides. Isn't it just a green wall? Moving exaggeration and rich imagination make the pavilions on this island more colorful and elegant. The wind blows on the wall, the green waves roll, the fragrance is overflowing, and the color, fragrance and shape are all good. Spring willow is light, summer lotus is bright, autumn water is bright, and winter mountain is quiet. Lianfeng Pavilion is not only the most suitable for summer heat, but also suitable for all seasons. If you look down at the pavilion around Hefeng from a height, you can see that the pavilion is exposed to the water, the cornices are protruding, the red columns are tall and straight, and the base is jade white. It is clearly a shining pearl held by lotus flowers in the pond.

Jianshan Building: Jianshan Building is surrounded by water on three sides and mountains on two sides. From the west, you can enter the ground floor through a flat covered bridge, and go upstairs through a climbing gallery or rockery. It is a residential building in Jiangnan style, with double eaves and one shed, resting on the top of the mountain, gentle slope, white walls and white tiles, and elegant colors. The exposed tile windows upstairs maintain a quaint style. The ground floor is called "Lotus Head Champs", and the veranda near the water is set up against the prince of Wu. When you have a rest, you can take a closer look at the fish and enjoy the lotus in the middle, while the scenery in the garden unfolds in front of your eyes. Upstairs is Jianshan Building, and Tao Yuanming has a famous saying, "Pick chrysanthemums under the east fence and see Nanshan leisurely." The high-rise building has a panoramic view of the central garden. In spring, the garden is green and colorful; Xu Lai in summer, fragrant lotus; In autumn, reeds in Chi Pan are windy and cold; In winter, the house is warm and sunny, and the snow scene is pleasant. There are no tall buildings in Suzhou. If you climb the building, you can see the mountains in the suburbs. According to legend, this building was the office of Li Xiucheng, a loyal monarch of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom during the Xianfeng period of the Qing Dynasty. I saw the mountain building high but not dangerous, steep and stable, forming a balanced picture with the surrounding scenery.

Yulantang: Yulantang is an independent and closed quiet courtyard, located at the junction of the owner's residential area and the Humble Administrator's Garden. It is the main place for the host to receive visitors and handle daily affairs. Yulantang is tall and spacious, with a small and exquisite courtyard. The south wall is towering, like drawing paper, and there are rattan grass paintings on the wall. There are flower beds, Tianzhu and bamboo bushes under the wall, and there are several peaks of lake rock, magnolia and osmanthus, which are fragrant and pleasant in color. The original name of Yulantang is "Pen Flower Hall", which has the same name as Wen Zhiming's former residence. This shows the unusual close relationship between the original owner Wang and Wang; Moreover, "dream pen gives birth to flowers" is also an ancient literati's pursuit of creative inspiration. Learning painting here is really a great enjoyment of life.

Introduction to Xiyuan

Yiliang Pavilion: On the left of other caves, there is a rockery. Along the stone path on the rockery, there is a hexagonal pavilion at the top of the mountain, which is the "Yiliang Pavilion". It stands on the edge of the cloud wall at the junction of the central garden and the west garden, with a high pavilion base, windows on six sides and plum blossom patterns on the panes. Climb the Yiling Pavilion and overlook the mountains and rivers in the middle. From the point of view of the central garden, after the progressive scenery is unfolded, two pavilions should protrude from the ridge of the corridor, so that the scenery of the whole central garden is endless, forming a very far-reaching landscape space, which is a typical example of "neighboring borrowing" in gardening skills. "Yiliang" comes from an interesting story. In the Tang Dynasty, Bai Juyi lived next door to Jane in Yuan Zong, and there were tall willows sticking out of the fence in the yard, which could be rewarded by the two families. Bai Juyi wrote a poem praising: "The bright moon is good for three nights, and Qingyang is suitable for home in two spring", which means that neighbors live in harmony. At that time, the Central Garden and the West Garden of the Humble Administrator's Garden were owned by two families respectively. The owner of the West Garden does not build tall buildings, but piles up mountains to build pavilions. Xi Jia can enjoy the scenery of the central garden that he appreciates very much in the pavilion, and the owner of the central garden can also overlook the towering interest of the pavilion in the central garden. It is wonderful to borrow the pavilion to enter the landscape and enrich the landscape! One pavilion and two houses add scenery and feelings. In this way, a good poem and a good story have created a wonderful pavilion and a landscape.

Corrugated Gallery: The water gallery at the junction of West Garden and Middle Garden is a rare structure elsewhere. Seen from the plane, the water gallery is L-shaped circular pool layout, which is divided into two sections, which are built according to the water. The southern section starts from the mouth of the cave and ends at the 36-yuan Yang Pavilion. The northern section ends in an inverted photo studio and hangs on the water. It used to be a water wall that separated Chinese gardens from Western gardens. As the dividing line between the two gardens, there are many hesitations about how to plan the landscape. Clever craftsmen use walls as corridors and build them by running water. They use a clever gardening technique to break the dull situation of this wall in order to survive in desperation, and overhead the lower part of the corridor like a plank road to make it rise and fall with the water, so that the landscape space is full of elasticity and rhythmic beauty. From south to north, after a series of morphological changes, it suddenly turns sharply, pulling it away from the garden wall for a certain distance, making it stand out above the pool, low on the water surface, flying from left to right, changing the top of the corridor into a pavilion cover, and standing two small stone pillars near the water, just like Diaoyutai. At the end of the wavy corridor near the inverted photo studio, a water hole is set at the lower part of it, so that the corridor can cross and connect the Chinese and western water systems of the garden. From a distance, the water gallery is like a rainbow lying on the waves, with extraordinary momentum.

Thirty-six Yuan Yang Pavilion: It is the main building of the West Garden, exquisite and gorgeous. It is called "Eighteen Datura Flower Pavilion" in the south and "Thirty-six Mandarin Duck Pavilion" in the north. A building has two names at the same time, which is a form of Yuanyang Hall in ancient buildings. A hall is divided into two parts by screens, lids and gauze purlins. The beam is made of flat material on one side and round material on the other, which seems to be the merger of two halls. Its function is that the south is suitable for winter and spring, and the north is suitable for summer and autumn. Yuanyang Hall is three rooms wide, with a hard-topped appearance and a square plane. There are exquisite ear rooms at the four corners, also known as Nuan Pavilion. The northern half is lifted out of the water, and the pavilion is supported by eight stone pillars on the pool. The ginkgo wood carving glass screen in the center of the museum divides the hall into two parts. The north hall (back hall) is adjacent to Qingchi. In summer and autumn, floating lotus ponds and mandarin ducks can be seen outside the window. Huo Guang, a general in the Eastern Han Dynasty, "chiseled a large pond in the garden, planted five-color water lilies and raised 36 pairs of mandarin ducks, which looked like brocade". The name of the museum takes its meaning, and the plaque was inscribed by Hong Jun, the champion of Suzhou during Tongzhi period of Qing Dynasty. Suzhou has been full of talented people since ancient times, and the number of top scholars in Ming and Qing Dynasties ranks among the top in China, and Hong Jun is one of them. He became a legend in folklore, mostly because he married a famous prostitute Sai Jinhua as his concubine. The story of Sai Jinhua was later written into a novel, and Jun Hong became more famous. The South Hall is the Eighteen Datura Flower Hall, which is suitable for living in winter and spring. The hall faces south to the sun, and the wall of the small courtyard is both windproof and warm, so that there is a proper amount of sunshine in the room. Datura flower is camellia. At the end of Qing Dynasty, when Zhang was building this museum, he planted 18 rare camellia plants. In winter, flowers wither, but camellia is like a proud snowy wintersweet. "Millions of trees swallow fire together, and the residual snow burns red for a long time." Showing exuberant vitality and unique aesthetic feeling. The plaque of this museum was inscribed by Lu Runxiang, another Suzhou scholar in the late Qing Dynasty. Champion Lu and Champion Hong wrote a plaque for the same building in Suzhou dialect, which added a lot of color to the hall. The 36-year-old Yuanyang Building has a four-fold arch ceiling, which not only bends beautifully and covers the beam frame on the roof, but also uses this arc roof to reflect the sound, enhance the acoustic effect and make the lingering sound linger between the beams. The host is here to entertain friends, receive guests and have a rest. Elegant environment. In the hall, there is a red flag, playing flute and singing. The furnishings are antique, paintings and calligraphy are hung on the screen, and the furniture is well furnished.

Reflection Pavilion: The reflection pavilion is a scenic spot mainly for viewing the reflection in the water. The building is divided into two floors, and the downstairs is the "worship ceremony". Wen refers to Shen Zhou (Ishida), both of whom are famous Suzhou painters, and Shen Zhou is the teacher. The reputation of Humble Administrator's Garden in Jiangnan is inseparable from Wen Zhiming, a great painter and poet. At that time, Zhang, the owner of Xiyuan, specially built this building as a memorial in the 20th year of Guangxu (1894). He embedded his collection of stone carvings of the portrait of He Shen, the rubbings of Humble Administrator's Garden, and Yu Sulu's "Mending the Garden" on the walls around the downstairs. Zheng Banqiao's original paintings and calligraphy are engraved on the skirt. On the water side, a long transparent window with low wooden strips was installed between the columns. Stand by and lean against the railing to enjoy the scenery by the water. On the left is the wavy corridor, and on the right is "Who is sitting on the porch with", especially the picturesque reflections of these scenes. There is a bright moon under the water, and there are clouds and waves floating in the pool. The scenery is excellent. Upstairs used to be the gardener's daughter-in-law Wang's study. There are countless osmanthus flowers planted around this building. You can enjoy osmanthus in autumn, such as drunken people. Whether reading and learning Chinese characters, reciting poems and painting, and enjoying the scenery, the environment is pleasant, fragrant and lovely.

Who is sitting on the porch with: The pavilion is very chic and made into a folding fan. Su Dongpo has a saying, "Who will sit with you? The moon, the breeze, me ",hence the name" Who will sit with me on the porch ". The entrance is built by water, and its plane shape is fan-shaped. The roof, porch door, window opening, stone table, stone bench, porch top, lampshade, plaque on the wall, gooseneck chair and half column are all fan-shaped, so they are also called "fan pavilions". On both sides of the fan-shaped window in the porch, Du Fu's poem "Jiangshan is waiting to turn, Liu Hua is selfless." Fan Pavilion is located at the foot of the mountain, with a good geographical position. The trees are tall and straight, and the stone buildings stand tall. People can feel the beautiful scenery in the porch whether they are leaning against the door or sitting near the window. There is also a small pavilion behind the Fan Pavilion called "Li Pavilion". "Li" means hat. The pavilion is round, with a gentle slope at the top, just like a hat, hidden among the leafy grass trees, abandoning all decorations and being unpretentious. The hill is small and well-proportioned, with mountains and rivers in front, just like a fisherman in Dai Li. Predecessors once wrote a compliment: "The flowers are green with scars, and the smoke ridges are dangerous." Li Yan's wife proved that Qianmeng was just right for Yu Ting. Hong Yin Xia Bian Mountain Temple, with green wrinkles painted in Jiangcheng. Huai wandered around Longling and sat listening to Yingying. "Who sits in the porch and Li Ting are two different art forms of garden architecture, and they are also rare pictographic buildings in classical gardens. Pavilion, porch combination, seamless. There is an octagonal two-story building on Liting Mountain, which is tall and majestic and really attracts people's attention. There are dense trees and lush vegetation on the mountain, and the building seems to float on a green shade, so it is called "Floating Cuige". The shape soars into the sky, and the fan of the facade is decorated with exquisite pictures. Looking around the pavilion, I saw mountains and rivers, the sky was high and the clouds were light, and the full of green in the garden was full of vitality, which made people feel relaxed and happy. Fan Ting, Li Ting and Fu Cuige are arranged in the order of water, mountain and peak. They come in different shapes and sizes, from low to high, step by step, just like duo, yi and mi in a scale, which makes people intoxicated with this beautiful melody.

Liuting: It is a single-story pavilion with light shape, windows around and a platform in front. The most noteworthy thing in the museum is the combination of three-dimensional carving of pine, bamboo, plum and magpie flying covers with relief, carving and round carving in Qing Dynasty. Skillful knife work, superb skills and ingenious ideas soften the two patterns of "three friends in a cold year" and "a magpie climbing a plum tree", leaving no trace at the seam. From the overall appearance, Liuting Pavilion is an abstract ship hall, and the platform in front of the hall is like the bow. The pond on the left is full of lotus flowers. In the growing period, the leaves, buds, flowers and fruits of lotus are graceful, and the viewing period is very special. Each stage has its own unique beauty, from a little green money emerging from the surface of the pond in late spring and early summer, to the fullness of the pond in midsummer, to the thick dead leaves and flowers in autumn. As the saying goes, a hundred flowers bloom for a hundred days, and no matter how beautiful the flowers are, they will eventually be "smashed into mud and crushed into ashes." The bleak evening scene with broken flowers and fallen leaves is unbearable to watch, but the withered lotus in the autumn pool has a beautiful artistic conception. Li Shangyin has a famous sentence "Leave a remnant lotus to listen to the rain", which is named after the poem. Flowers fade, people are old, and the scenery is still there. It is unforgettable and touching. It is thought-provoking. In the forty-fourth time of A Dream of Red Mansions, Jia Baoyu and Lin Daiyu swam in the water in a wooden boat driven by Gusu's driving mother. When Daiyu saw a pool of lotus flowers, she said, "I don't like Li Yishan's poems the most, but I only like his sentence" Leave the residual lotus to listen to the rain ... "Lin Daiyu is a very cultured girl. She is sentimental and intelligent, but she is aloof and unwilling to go with the flow, which is why she treats Li Shangyin like this. Although this is a description in literary works, the poetic realm she appreciates also appears in the West Garden of Humble Administrator's Garden. Teana played magnificent or cheerful or cheerful music in China gardens.

Taying Pavilion: This pavilion is an octagonal pattern, with panes from top to bottom and around. It is one of the most exquisite and gorgeous buildings in the garden. After staying in the berth of the pavilion, I looked back at the tower shadow pavilion, which was very wonderful. The long and narrow longitudinal water system opened the checkpoint, and after a certain distance, the depth of the entrance was enhanced. The pointed octagonal pavilion is printed into the water, like a pagoda, dignified and pleasant. The real pavilion and fake tower connected by reality and reality is a unique landscape in western gardens. In the Humble Administrator's Garden, there are two landscapes related to pagodas. One is the North Temple Tower outside the park, which is borrowed from Hongyi Pavilion, and the other is Taying Pavilion, which is made of waterscape. The pagoda seen in the Central Garden is real, but the pagoda seen in the West Garden is virtual. Whether it is a real tower from a distance or a fake tower from a close look, people have rich associations and left a deep impression. The tower shadow pavilion is inconspicuous and has reached the end of the garden. The clever master built a small pavilion at the end of the water source. If the whole West Garden is compared to a beautiful melody, then the Taying Pavilion is the last note. The abrupt music makes people feel abrupt, and the tower shadow pavilion here constitutes a complete movement. Even better, there are not only pavilions, but also shadows, just like the lingering sound at the end of the song, which makes people memorable.

Walking in the humble administrator's garden feels really good, and the scenery is beautiful, no matter from which angle it is a painting.
