The Museum of Chinese Gardens and Landscape Architure

The Chinese Garden Museum is located on the banks of the Yongding River in Beijing, adjacent to the Garden Expo Park. The entire museum area consists of three parts: the main building, indoor reconstructed buildings, and outdoor reconstructed buildings: ◇ The indoor exhibition area includes temporary and permanent exhibitions ① Garden History Exhibition ② Suzhou Gardens - Chang Garden, one of the many existing classical gardens in Suzhou, is a relatively small private garden. ③ Lingnan Gardens - Yuyin Mountain House, originally located in Guangzhou, was the private garden of Qing dynasty scholar Wu Bin. ④ Yangzhou Gardens - Pianshi Mountain House, the most famous rockery in the garden was created by Shi Tao, a landscape painter from the late Ming and early Qing dynasties. Outdoor Garden Exhibition ① Northern Mountain Garden - Qixia Mountain House ② Northern Private Garden - Banmu Xuanxie ③ Northern Waterscape Garden - Taoying Bieyuan The outdoor garden scenery is serene and beautiful, with mountains and water in harmony, where one can climb or follow the water. The Garden Museum is free to the public, combining garden knowledge with physical gardens, and is well worth a visit.

I took 27 subway stops and 5 bus stops to visit the Garden Expo Park and the Chinese Garden Museum. There were a lot of people because the peach blossoms were blooming. Here's a brief review for future visitors: 1. Transportation The subway station for the Garden Expo Park is the fastest way to get there by bus directly at the entrance. You can take either bus 903 or a special line, and the stop at Gate 6 passes by the Garden Museum, but we went to climb the mountain first because there are fewer places to rest on the mountain than in the museum, and more energy is needed. 2. Garden Expo Park Peach Blossom Valley is located between Wenchang Pavilion and Yongding Tower, so almost everyone gets off at Gate 6 and climbs up the mountain. The road up the mountain is easy to walk, with a gentle slope and a wide cement path that can accommodate vehicles. The peach trees in the valley are dense and gather along the slope like clouds. The peach blossoms here are mainly white and light pink, delicate and softly fragrant, already showing signs of withering. Don't be fixated on a specific photo spot; in fact, without post-processing, no matter how you take the picture, it won't have the beauty of a sky full of blossoms. There are many places on the mountain where you can overlook a railway, with freight trains passing by frequently, and the red locomotives are very eye-catching. If you stand by the peach trees and look, it's like a train heading to spring. The park's facilities are average, but since there is no admission fee, you can't ask for too much. 3. Garden Museum This museum is actually hard to do because gardens themselves are architecture, and displaying architecture within a building can't just be about models. Rebuilding would be strange since some gardens are already reconstructions, which would be a reconstruction of a reconstruction. Their approach is to rebuild a Suzhou-style private garden like the Pishi Mountain House indoors, and a northern imperial garden with carved beams and painted rafters outdoors. In addition, the theme exhibition hall displays some technical details of garden construction, such as architectural painting, building components, etc. The indoor part I think is average, with the feeling of fresh paint, lacking an immersive experience except for convenient cosplay photography. The outdoor part is quite good, blending with the mountains of the Garden Expo Park, and there are plenty of places to rest, making it very suitable for spring outings and enjoyment.

As someone who has a special affection for Chinese gardens, I had to visit the Chinese Garden Museum. Having toured all four famous Chinese gardens, my understanding of Chinese gardens has been elevated to a new level after visiting the museum. Next time I visit a garden, it will be with more purpose!

"Multidimensional Series Exhibition of Chinese Gardens - Reflections on the Mirror" opened in the No. 2 thematic exhibition hall of the Chinese Garden Museum (Garden Expo Museum). The exhibition displays 118 sets of items including bronze mirrors, Han Dynasty roof tiles, calligraphy and paintings, and contemporary artworks, showcasing the origin, prosperity, peak, slow development, and decline of bronze mirrors, and interpreting the relationship and philosophy between bronze mirrors and gardens. This exhibition is the first in our country to interpret the theme of bronze mirrors from a multidimensional perspective of gardens, and through interactive installations and scenes such as multifaceted magic mirrors and kaleidoscopes, it turns the transmission and acquisition of knowledge into an immersive experience that participants can interact with.

The exquisite southern garden landscapes of Chang Garden, Yuyin Mountain House, and Pieshi Mountain House are particularly eye-catching. During the Spring Festival, there are not many visitors, and most activities are indoors, which is a good way to avoid the cold of winter.
