The scenery in the east and west halves is organically combined by an arch bridge named "Rainbow Around Green".
In addition, a smaller Yuyuan Garden is adjacent to the southern mountain house. Yu Garden is a residential courtyard, built in 1922, which was built by the fourth generation of the owner of Yu Garden. There is a boat hall on the ground floor, a small pond outside the hall, and a glass hall on the second floor overlooking the courtyard view of the mountain house. Now it belongs to yuyinshan house. The combination of the two gardens played a complementary role.
Qinghui Garden, one of the four famous gardens in Guangdong, is a provincial-level cultural relic protection unit, which is famous for showing the elegant and quaint style of Lingnan quadrangles.
This garden was originally the residence of Huang in Ming Dynasty, and was later purchased by Jinshi Long in Qing Dynasty. In the fifth year of Jiaqing (1800), Hanlin Longtinghuai, the son of the season, resigned and returned to the south to build a garden to serve his mother. Later, after Ding Huai's sons Long, Sun Long Jingcan and Zeng Sunlong, each door was carefully managed and built by several generations, and the pattern began to take shape. During the period of War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression, the Long family fled overseas, and the quadrangles became increasingly dilapidated. 1959, Tao Zhu, secretary of Guangdong Provincial Party Committee, paid close attention to the inspection and approved the special restoration fund. 1996, considering the historical, artistic and ornamental value of Qinghui Garden, Shunde Municipal Party Committee and Municipal Government expanded it, increasing its area from more than 70 square meters to more than 22,000 square meters, recreating the essence of the famous garden and receiving overseas tourists.

In the early years of the Republic of China, a generation of famous gardens were on the verge of annihilation. In view of its historical, artistic and ornamental value, 1982 Foshan Municipal Party Committee and Municipal Government rescued and protected the existing Qunxing Caotang Group for the first time, and 1990 was designated as a provincial key cultural relics protection unit. Then, a large-scale comprehensive restoration was started at 1994, with a total area of 21260m2. According to the principle of "repairing the old as the old", the essence of the famous garden is reproduced.

Although it is made of wood, stone and blue bricks, the architecture is very particular, with window carvings, railings, beauty lounges and even floors in different styles. Its layout is patchy and connected everywhere. The twists and turns are confusing. The keynote is that there is a scene in the empty place, the sparse place is not empty, the small place is big, dense but not urgent, quiet and interesting, quiet and fragrant. In addition, the decoration is fresh and elegant, occupying water to grow flowers, which is very rich in southern characteristics and is a treasure of Guangdong gardens.
Zhang, the founder of Keyuan, joined the army as an essay and served as the minister in charge of the Jiangxi Provincial Court. He was proficient in calligraphy and painting, piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, poetry and songs, and invited scholars widely, making Keyuan one of the cultural sources of Guangdong in the Qing Dynasty. Juchao and Ju Lian Jukeyuan have lived for ten years, and they have created a boneless and powder-bumping method to draw flower-and-bird paintings, and taught them, thus creating a precedent for Lingnan painting school.
Today, Keyuan has become a provincial-level cultural relics protection unit, and it is more lovely after continuous improvement.
