Originally known as Jixiao Villa, it is located on Xu Ningmen Street beside the ancient canal. It is the most distinctive garden in Yangzhou in the late Qing Dynasty. The surname of the owner of the garden is He, so it is named Hejia Garden, or "He Garden" for short.
He Garden, also known as "Jixiao Villa", was built by He Zhige, who served as the supervisor of Hubei Han Huangdaotai and Jianghanguan during the Guangxu period of the Qing Dynasty, and served as the Qing government's envoy to France. It was the former site of the Shuanghuai Garden during the Qianlong period of the Qing Dynasty. . During the Tongzhi period of the Qing Dynasty, the former site of Shuanghuai Garden was rebuilt into Jixiao Villa, covering an area of ??more than 14,000 square meters. There are two large locust trees in the garden, which are said to be the relics of Shuanghuai Garden, and one of them still exists today. The name of the garden comes from Tao Yuanming's meaning of "Come back home...climb Donggao to soothe the whistle, and compose poems by the clear stream." The garden was built as the back garden of He's house, so it is also called "He Garden". In the ninth year of Guangxu (AD 1883), after the owner of the garden returned to Yangzhou, he purchased the former site of Wu's Pianshi Mountain House and expanded it into the garden. The owner of the garden brought Western architectural features back to the ancient civilization, and absorbed the advantages of Chinese royal gardens and private gardens in the south of the Yangtze River. He also made extensive use of new materials, making the garden innovative by absorbing the experience of many gardens.

Strolling through He Garden, you will find winding corridors, empty paths, rockeries on the walls, birds perching on trees and hills, fish swimming in the water... just like "birds flying on the screen, in a fairyland."
He Garden There are four "No. 1 in the world" in the garden, three of which are located in the West Garden. The "No. 1 corridor in the world" refers to the double-passage cloister in He Garden. It is divided into upper and lower floors, either straight or curved, and runs through the whole garden. , with a total length of more than 1,500 meters, is known as the prototype of an overpass in China.

The "No. 1 Pavilion in the World" refers to the Shuixin Pavilion in the center of the West Garden. The Shuixin Pavilion is the only water stage in China, where people can sing and dance skillfully with the help of water. The echo of the corridor has the effect of enhancing the sound of the sound. The stone mountain house located in the southeast of the park is called "the best mountain in the world". There is a stone house with two stone houses hidden in the belly of Master Shi Tao's unique world. There are entrances and exits from east to west.

Daming Temple (the first temple in Huaidong)
In the northern suburbs of the ancient city of Yangzhou, Shubang stretches like a crouching dragon. The world-famous Daming Temple, a thousand-year-old temple, stands on the middle peak of Shubang due to its collection of Buddhist temples, cultural relics and historic sites. The garden scenery is well-known throughout the ages, and it is a national cultural treasure with rich historical and cultural connotations.
The Daming Temple was named after it was first built in the reign of Emperor Xiaowu of the Southern Dynasty (457-464). Over the past 1,500 years, the name of the temple has changed. For example, it was called "Qiling Temple" and "West Temple" in the Sui Dynasty, and "Zhengping" in the late Tang Dynasty. Temple", in the 30th year of Qianlong's reign, the emperor personally inscribed "Edict Fajing Temple". In 1980, Daming Temple restored its original name.
The cultural heritage of Daming Temple is very rich, and there are many beautiful words and poems in the past dynasties. Shanmen On the outer east side wall, facing south, there is a stone inscription with the words "The First View of Huaidong" in a scroll. This stone was erected during the Yongzheng period of the Qing Dynasty. It was proposed by Gao Shiyao, the prefect of Yangzhou, and used the famous poet Qin Shaoyou of the Song Dynasty to praise the greatness. The landscape of the Ming Temple is inscribed with calligraphy by Jiang Heng, a calligrapher from Jintan. In the Northern Song Dynasty, Yangzhou was under the jurisdiction of Huainan East Road. The famous writers Su Che (Ziyou) and Qin Guan (Shaoyou) visited the Daming Temple and composed poems and songs. The last line of Qin Shaoyou's poem is: "If a tourist talks about the beauty of climbing, he must take the first view of Huaidong." "Since then, the Daming Temple scenic spot has become famous all over the world as "the first scenic spot in Huaidong".
In the Qing Dynasty, Emperor Yongzheng once wrote a couplet for the Daming Temple: "Wan Songyue ***'s clothes are bright, and the five The night wind blows with the sound of Zen tin. "Qianlong's inscribed couplet: "The wonders of the Huaihai Sea open up a pure land, and the tranquil mountains and rivers are in harmony with the distant mind. "On the east corridor wall of the north courtyard of Qingkong Pavilion on the east side of Daming Temple, there is an inscription of "Prajna Paramita Heart Sutra" in seal script by the famous calligrapher Deng Shiru of the Qing Dynasty. It is a rare seal script treasure in China.

It is also a treasure of Deng Shiru's stone carvings.
Guanyin Mountain
Guanyin Mountain is the former site of Milou in the Sui Dynasty. According to "Milou Ji", Milou was the palace of Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty. It was designed by Zhejiang craftsman Xiang Sheng. The husband is tens of thousands, and it has been built over the years. "Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty once said: "If a true immortal travels here, he should be lost." After the death of the Sui Dynasty, the building was destroyed. In the Ming Dynasty, Hu Tong once wrote a plaque "Jian Lou", clearly taking "a lesson from the past." It means "to warn future generations" and to use the lessons of Emperor Yang of Sui Dynasty to serve as a warning to future generations.
Starting from the Yuan Dynasty to the Yuan Dynasty, it went through the Ming and Qing dynasties and was repeatedly demolished and repaired. Most of the temple's current buildings were built during the Guangxu period, and the Buddha statues were all remodeled after 1984. Guanyin Mountain is the representative of mountain temples. It is located on the east peak of Shugang. Because its terrain is the highest in Yangzhou, Gousi boldly uses the structural method of mountain temples: instead of emphasizing symmetry, the temple is built on the top of the mountain to follow the mountain. The ancient trees on the mountain block the sun, the red walls are towering, and the buildings and halls are staggered. The mountain and the temple seem to be one. First, it is characterized by deep twists and turns. The road up the mountain from the front is winding and winding, and when you climb to the top, the brick-paved mountain road is winding and steep. The two sides are like parapets on a city wall, so it is known as the "Little Great Wall". There are buildings such as Yuantong Palace, Milou, Purple Bamboo Forest, and Shangyuan on the mountain.
These buildings are not on the same central axis. For example, the Shanmen Hall is built from the west to the east, while the Tianwang Hall and the Yuantong Palace are from the north to the south. When you think there is no way out, go around the side hall. , then enter the purple bamboo forest, climb a few steps, and see the mysterious building appear in front of you. Ancient poets sketched the scenery here: "The pavilions are high and low, the windows are shaded, the secluded rooms are curved, the jade railings and red wooden shields are connected to each other, the loops are in four directions, the curved houses are connected to each other, and there are thousands of doors, and the top and bottom are golden and green." Its second characteristic is that it is dangerous. The temple is located on the top of a mountain, with a stone foundation. The buildings are all majestic, with towers and pavilions. Looking up at the foot of the mountain, dangerous buildings confront each other on the cliff. The woods here are called "Yunlin", the pond here is "Tianchi", and the building here is "Zhaixinglou". When Emperor Gaozong visited the south, he once wrote a couplet that read, "The Lu River flows into the clear light, and the green mountains are still as ancient as before." The horizontal comment "mainly steep and steep" appropriately summarized its precipitous state.
