Four Famous Gardens in Suzhou-Lion Forest
Lion Grove is one of the four famous gardens in Suzhou, with a history of more than 650 years, and it is the representative of gardens in Yuan Dynasty. Located at No.23 Garden Road, the northeast corner of Suzhou City, Jiangsu Province, it is a slightly wide rectangle with an area of 1. 1 hectare and an open area of 0.88 hectares. There are many rockeries in the park, surrounded by long corridors, towers looming and winding paths leading to a secluded place, which feels like a lost place. The four walls of the gallery are embedded with calligraphy plaques of four famous Song Dynasty artists, Su Shi, Mi Fei, Huang Tingjian and Cai Xiang, and the inscription of Plum Blossom Poetry by Wen Tianxiang in the Southern Song Dynasty.
It is mountainous in the southeast, watery in the northwest, with high walls and deep houses, and winding corridors around it. With the central pool as the center, it is built on the mountain, replacing flowers with trees, and pavilions by the bridge, which makes the whole garden compact and full of the artistic conception of "pleasant mountains and forests". Lion Forest has the cultural landscape of pavilions, terraces, buildings, pavilions, halls, pavilions and corridors in Suzhou classical gardens. It is famous for its strange lakes and mountains and deep caves, and is known as the "rockery kingdom". There are many carefully carved rockeries in the lion forest, with lakes and mountains, winding paths and strange circles, so it is called "Eighteen Scenes of Taoyuan". There are many strange stones at the top of the cave, all of which are dancing like lions. There are famous peaks here, such as Glory, Earth Moon, Yuxuan and Angxia, and Lion Peak is the first one. The main building of the park is Yu Yan Hall, with Little Square Hall and Betty Hall behind it. To the west, you can point to Bai Xuan, a two-story attic surrounded by pavilions and exquisite Gao Shuang. To the west of Bai Xuan is the ancient Wusong Garden. The southwest corner is the Jianshan Tower. Looking west at the mountain building, you can go to the Lotus Hall. In the northwest of the hall, there is a very interesting pavilion next to the pool. The algae are beautifully decorated and the figures and flowers are lifelike. There are two stone boats beside the pavilion. Shi Yinxing
Qian's Guangling Yubei Garden, located in the south of Wuxian School in Jiangsu Province, was acquired by Shunqin, and the pavilion was named Canglang. Because it is written in Canglang Pavilion, there are dozens of acres of water, and there are hills beside it, winding and intertwined with water. Shunqin died, and his master changed again and again. Shaoxing once belonged to Han Shizhong, whose common name was Han, but later it was changed to Ming and abandoned as a monk. On Fangshengchi Lake in Yangxin County, Hubei Province, lotus flowers are in sight, willows hang down the dike and mountains surround it. A pagoda stands abruptly between clouds and green trees. It is called the victory of Jiangshan, quite like the West Lake in Wulin.
