1 Yangzhou Garden VS Suzhou Garden
If you have been to Suzhou Garden, is Yangzhou Garden still worth visiting? Of course, the answer is yes. The construction time and style of the two are different, so don't worry about the feeling of repetition, so don't miss Yangzhou Garden just because you have seen Suzhou Garden.
In addition, if you are a lover of photography and Ming and Qing architecture, you must visit Yangzhou Garden. Salt merchants with strong financial resources used top craftsmen, materials and design schemes when building these gardens and private houses, which could be regarded as the highest level at that time. This is definitely a visual feast.
For those who like quiet and slow-paced life, Yangzhou Garden is an excellent place to relax. What is more pleasant than drinking a pot of green tea in these gardens to relax?
Xihu shouxuyuan
Sandy Garden, the Slender West Lake, ranks first in the world.
Yangzhou's waterways extend in all directions and prosper because of the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal. Different from many classical gardens in China, Slender West Lake has built many ancient buildings in Ming and Qing Dynasties with criss-crossing waterway layout, leaving 24 famous scenic spots along the lake. Starting from the dry dragon fish wharf, along the lake, it passes through Ye Chun, Lvyang Village, Hongyuan Garden and Xiyuan Qushui, passes through Dahongqiao and Liu Changli Spring, and reaches Xu Yuan, Xiaojinshan, Diaoyutai, Lianxing Temple, Baita, Fuzhuang and Wu Ting Bridge, and then goes north to Shugang Pingshantang and Guanyin Mountain. The lake is more than ten miles long, just like a landscape painting, which also gives the Slender West Lake a pattern and artistic conception that other gardens do not have.
Dahongqiao
The beauty of the Slender West Lake "flowers on both sides and mountains along the way" began in Dahongqiao, where many literati left many well-known poems, and Dahongqiao became famous for it. "Yangzhou is good, the first is Hongqiao. Three feet of rain fell willow green, cherry red bursts, and Lanzhou was everywhere. "

No.4 bridge misty rain
What kind of building can have such a romantic name? Jade Wild Goose Pagoda of the Fourth Bridge is called Jade Wild Goose Pagoda because you can see Chunbo Bridge and Dahongqiao in the south, Changchun Bridge in the north and lianhua bridge in the west. These four bridges are different in distance and shape. If the weather is slightly rainy, there will be a magical landscape of "four bridges flying smoke". The four bridges divide the lake into different areas and are connected with each other at the same time, forming beautiful scenery with different scenery.
Xiaojinshan
The West Lake is thin and the Jinshan is small, which points out that Yangzhou gardens are good at learning from others and are not unconventional. Xiaojinshan has all kinds of buildings, including a wind pavilion, an air dryer, a moon view and a Muxi bookstore. It is also the best place to enjoy the panoramic view of Slender West Lake and the moon.

Fishing platform
Although the Diaoyutai of Slender West Lake is small, it is a model of "framed scenery" art in China gardens. Standing in the pavilion, you can see the Wu Ting Bridge from the round hole in the north and the White Pagoda from the round hole in the south. One horizontal and one vertical two colorful scenery, wonderful.

Five pavilion bridge
Wu Ting Bridge is the symbol of Slender West Lake.
When Emperor Long visited Slender West Lake, he regretted that there was a white pagoda missing here. Yangzhou salt merchants with deep pockets built a white tower with white salt overnight according to the appearance of Beihai White Tower. Although it is not as high as the White Pagoda in Beihai, the White Pagoda in Slender West Lake is in harmony with the Wu Ting Bridge.
West Lake Baishou Pagoda
Xichuntai
Xichuntai is the main building of the 24 th Bridge Scenic Area. The architectural style of this area shows the grand style of the royal garden. The buildings are all green glazed tiles, Zhu Dong, white jade and golden roof.
Xihu Xi shouchuntai
twenty four bridges
The 24 th Bridge consists of a sail-dropping plank road, a single-span arch bridge, a zigzag bridge and a whistle pavilion. In Du Mu's poems, the artistic conception of "Twenty-four bridges on a moonlit night, jade people teach flute" is worth savoring slowly.
Shouxihu no.24 bridge
Wangchun building
Different from Xichun Pagoda, Wangchun Pagoda is a typical Jiangnan garden style. The water courtyard and mountain pavilion on the two floors downstairs introduce the landscape into the room, and the terrace upstairs can enjoy the moon, reflecting the southern customs.

Three Gardens-Rockery The four seasons are different.
This garden, together with Beijing Summer Palace, chengde mountain resort and Suzhou Humble Administrator's Garden, is called "Four Famous Gardens in China" and is an outstanding representative of private gardens in the south of the Yangtze River. Gardens are represented by bamboo and stone, and the name "Ge" accounts for half of the word "bamboo". There are nearly 100 kinds of bamboo in the garden, which means elegance, elegance and uniqueness. The rockery in the garden, which is composed of Hushi, Huangshi and Xuan Shi, has superb skills. It is amazing to combine the gardening principle with the landscape painting theory with stone barrels. Although the garden is small, the scenery is different, the seasons are different, and each has its own advantages.
Chunshan
There are mottled stalagmites in the bamboo forest next to the gate of Geyuan, which constitutes the theme of Spring Mountain. The method of cherishing ink as gold reminds people that although the spring scenery at the gate is good, it is fleeting and should be cherished.

Its regular layout, exquisite decoration and profound cultural heritage make it have its own unique charm. Yangzhou's mansion-style pattern allows Wang's small garden to be separated freely inside and outside. Wood carving, brick carving and stone carving are skillfully combined with buildings, floors and walls. All kinds of themes make people admire the craftsmanship of craftsmen. It is worth mentioning that Qionghua, the flower of Yangzhou, can also be enjoyed in Wang's small garden.

6 Lushi Salt Merchants Mansion-the first floor of salt merchants
The prosperity of Yangzhou in history can not be separated from salt merchants. In addition to all kinds of gardens built in the city, the rich world can't treat itself badly. Lushi Salt Merchant House is the largest existing salt merchant house in Yangzhou. These tall ancient buildings with blue bricks and tiles perfectly interpret the characteristics of salt merchants "storing wealth for the people" and gather the essence of Ming and Qing architecture.
According to legend, salt merchants spent 72,000 yuan to build these mansions, and their generosity also gave the local government the "five best" in Yangzhou: the largest land area, the widest doors, the largest number of houses, the most open halls and the longest construction time. From the outside, you may not feel the "wealth" of salt merchants. The whole Luzhai is 100 meters deep. Being in it, you will really be shocked by its exquisite elegance and luxurious style.

Tip: In addition to the exquisite house, Lulu's other major feature is Huaiyang cuisine and morning tea. Eating here can not only be free of admission fees, but also visit the garden before and after meals and experience the life of salt merchants!

7 small valleys-just like nature itself
Little Pangu is not well known. Many people in Yangzhou don't know this place, but it is one of the most authentic private gardens. Because there are many rockeries, valleys and stone paths in the garden, although they are all artificially built, they all seem to be naturally formed, which is also the origin of the name "Little Pangu". Like most Yangzhou gardens, Pan Xiao Valley is small in area, but "the sparrow is small and complete". Coupled with fewer tourists, the quiet environment can make people feel the garden style of the big family at that time.

8 Puyi-mean streets's ancient family style
Puyi, located in the famous Dongguan Street in Yangzhou, was built by Li Hesheng, the owner of the money house. The whole garden structure is similar to that of Suzhou Quyuan, forming a pattern of ups and downs, changeable state, uneven left and right, and life and death. In ancient Yangzhou, no matter how small the house was, flowers had to be planted, and no matter how small the property was, books had to be collected. Puyi reflected this elegant style at that time. Many rooms of Puyi have become a part of Changle Inn in Dongguan Street, but gardens, mountains, rivers, doors and sculptures still make people linger.
9 Yangzhou bonsai garden-unique
Yangzhou bonsai is one of the five bonsai schools in China. It is deeply influenced by Yangzhou garden style, and also absorbs the essence of North and South schools, forming its own unique style. Yangzhou bonsai garden itself is a graceful Jiangnan garden with three different scenic spots and different styles. "Rolling Stone Cave" shows indoor natural scenery. "West Garden Qushui" wins with water, with a bridge in the water and an island outside the bridge; "Hongqiao Xiuzhu" is a high-quality exhibition area of Yangpai bonsai. The bonsai between square inches shows the magnificent artistic conception of famous mountains and rivers, and the landscaping of the bonsai garden itself makes this artistic conception more intense.

Wudaotai Mansion is based on the architectural rules of Zhejiang, and at the same time incorporates the traditional architectural style of Yangzhou. With the characteristics of both Chinese and western classical architecture, it is called ninety-nine and a half rooms because of its large scale. Wudaotai Mansion was destroyed by fire at 1945, and nearly 3/5 of the building area was destroyed. After renovation, Wudaotai Building reappears its original appearance. The whole restoration process is a microcosm of Yangzhou's protection of ancient city gardens.

1 1 How to play Yangzhou Garden?
If you are visiting Yangzhou for the first time, you must go to Slender West Lake, because it is a masterpiece of Yangzhou gardens. If you have been to Slender West Lake, you can spend all your time visiting other gardens in Yangzhou. I recommend two lines for your reference.

Da Hongqiao Chang Liu Di Chun Xu Yuan No.4 Bridge Yanyu Xiao Jinshan Diaoyutai Wu Ting Bridge Baita Xichuntai No.24 Bridge Basin Garden
Different from other gardens, the best way to visit Slender West Lake is to take the original boat, board the boat from the Royal Pier and visit with Emperor Qianlong. Every spring, Yang Liuyi's "Spring Willow in Long Beach" perfectly depicts the beautiful scenery of "Yangzhou March Fireworks". Xu Garden is the garden in the garden and the former site of Taohuawu. The name of Xiaojinshan opposite is the same as that of Slender West Lake. "Small" and "slender" appropriately describe the style of Yangzhou gardens. "Misty Rain on Four Bridges" brings the art of borrowing scenery to the extreme with the ingenious conception of several bridges on the first floor. Wu Ting Bridge and White Pagoda are representative buildings of Slender West Lake. Don't forget to take pictures here. Although the bridge no longer exists, you can still see the beauty of the river.

Garden Puyi Wang's Heyuan Lushi Salt Merchant House
Take Geyuan as the first stop of Yangzhou Garden, and the garden design here is mainly bamboo and stone. The rockery in the four seasons presents the artistic conception of "Spring Mountain is gorgeous and smiling, Summer Mountain is green and dripping, Autumn Mountain is bright and clean as makeup, and Winter Mountain is bleak and sleepy", which is unique in China gardens.
Puyi, which is adjacent to the garden, shows the merchants' interest in pursuing elegance at that time. Garden, mountain, gate and sculpture are the four characteristics of Puyi. Most of Yangzhou's gardens are in front of the house and behind it, but Puyi Garden is built on the left side of the house, which is very ingenious.
The preserved residence of Wang Xiao Garden has a regular layout, exquisite decoration, exquisite gardens and rich cultural heritage. The mysterious salt merchant culture has also attracted many tourists to find out.
Heyuan gives full play to the function and charm of corridor architecture. The double corridors in the park extend in all directions, and the open layout makes all landscapes more natural, achieving a harmonious state of harmony between man and nature.
The last stop is Lushi Salt Merchants House. In Yangzhou, where gardens are mostly residential, Lushi's ancient folk houses combine the essence of Ming and Qing dynasties, showing the elegance of salt merchants.
