Geyuan Garden

Ge Garden, named after bamboo and famous for its stones, is the oldest and best preserved salt merchant garden in Yangzhou. If 'March fireworks in Yangzhou' is the endorsement written by Li Bai for Yangzhou, then 'the best place in the west of bamboo' is the promotion given by Jiang Kui to Ge Garden. The lush green bamboo separated by a wall separates the hustle and bustle of Dongguan Street and soothes the anxiety and impatience brought by my hurried journey. 'Prefer to eat without meat, rather than live without bamboo', the owner of Ge Garden, Huang Yingtai, cherishes and loves bamboo, even changed his name to 'Zhiyun', and planted his residence full of lush bamboo. Naming the garden 'Ge' is not only a clever take on the charm of the Chinese character and shape of bamboo; the three strokes in the painting also represent the perfect realm of the three fullness of fortune, salary, and longevity. This is also the most famous classical garden in Yangzhou besides Slender West Lake - if you don't come to Ge Garden, you haven't been to Yangzhou. Four Seasons Rockery: A mountain has many seasons, and a season is in many mountains Chinese freehand brushwork is committed to integrating thousands of weather in a square inch. A long scroll of the four seasons is also condensed into an eternal real scene by Ge Garden. 'Spring mountain is light and like a smile, summer mountain is green and like a drop, autumn mountain is clear and like makeup, winter mountain is bleak and like sleep', and the winter and spring mountains are separated by a wall. Through the hole in the west wall of the winter mountain, you can glimpse the stalagmites at the entrance of the garden outside - winter is here, will spring be far away? Admiring the autumn mountain in autumn is just right: the craftsman cleverly borrows the texture and unique color of the newly built yellow stone, and constructs a rugged and changeable three-dimensional landscape in the square inch of the world. Standing on the Buddha Yun Pavilion on the top of the mountain, you can overlook the autumn mountain below, and you can look far away to the Slender West Lake to the north. The mountain is also planted with ancient cypresses, red maples and other colorful and angular plants, which are commensurate with the handsome mountain body, making this live 'Autumn Mountain Sunset' picture always new. Baoshan Building: Don't go out and the sky is spring, and the dust horses are all resting The slender Baoshan Building embraces the summer and autumn mountains with a long corridor, hence the name. The garden has the saying of 'mustard sumeru' and 'pot middle world', and the title of Baoshan Building 'Pot Sky from Spring' also means to see the big from the small. It is like a time and space tunnel, collecting spring, summer, autumn and winter, heaven and earth, day and moon: climbing the building and looking, you can overlook the clear pool and mountain stone flowers and trees under the building, as far as the entrance of the spring mountain; to the north, you can look far away. Yangzhou city scenery, hear the voices of people in the market; walking along the long corridor in the building, there are exquisite and transparent summer and majestic and heavy autumn within a hundred steps. Wan Bamboo Garden: The green shadow shakes the sky and the blue clouds are low, and the bamboo dances with the wind and the rhyme is long Bamboo is the spirit of Ge Garden. In Wan Bamboo Garden, there are now more than 60 kinds of ornamental bamboo and more than 20,000 poles. There is a pavilion in the depths of the bamboo forest, named after Wang Wei's poem 'Bamboo Pavilion'. The couplet in the pavilion 'For the heavy frost festival, can be empty to respond to the heart of things' also reflects Huang Zhiyun's love for the bamboo's spirit. Standing in the hexagonal pavilion surrounded by bamboo trees on all sides, waiting for the breeze to pass through the bamboo tips, the bamboo shadows swaying, listening to the clear and unique sound of the bamboo leaves, I can't help but think: when the 'Seven Sages of the Bamboo Forest' in the Wei and Jin Dynasties lived under the bamboo and sang happily, Is it so comfortable and hearty? 'Spring, summer, autumn and winter mountain light is different, the wind is clear and the dew bamboo shadow is colorful', come to Ge Garden in autumn, you can enjoy the fragrant osmanthus, golden ginkgo, and fiery maple's strong autumn rhyme at the same time. 📍'Ge Garden': No. 10 Yanfu East Road, Guangling District 💰Tickets: 30r  Ge Garden

Dongguan Street A very representative historical old street in Yangzhou, with lanterns hanging from the eaves of old buildings along the road, full of New Year's atmosphere, it is a great place for a city stroll. Ge Garden I personally think it's more worth visiting than He Garden~ The exquisite garden and rockery are very typical of Chinese elegance. Pishi Street There are many interesting creative shops, as well as a big "Yangzhou" sign, which is very suitable for taking photos. Er Fen Ming Yue Lou A free garden hidden in the alley, not very big and with few people, but still encapsulates the poetic and picturesque charm of the gardens in the south of the Yangtze River.

"About Accommodation" This time I came to Yangzhou to better experience the market life of this small town, so I deliberately stayed at the reconstructed Bingyuan Pavilion Cultural Resort Hotel on Dongguan Street~ In a century-old salt merchant's residence, through the understanding of the aesthetics of life, it has been upgraded and transformed, but you can feel a different kind of relaxation and tranquility. Sitting in the tea room in the garden landscape and chatting and tasting tea in the afternoon really feels like the right way to open a trip to Yangzhou!

🚗 Ge Garden is located at No. 10 Yanfu East Road, Guangling District, Yangzhou City, Jiangsu Province, in the northeast corner. It has been honored with the title of the third batch of 'National Key Cultural Relics Protection Units' and the 'First Batch of National Key Parks'. This Qing Dynasty private garden of Yangzhou salt merchants, named for its bamboo planting, is famous for its artificial mountains representing the four seasons of spring, summer, autumn, and winter. It was expanded by the salt merchant Huang Zhiyun of the two Huai salt industries in the 23rd year of the Jiaqing era of the Qing Dynasty (1818 AD) on the basis of the original Ming Dynasty 'Shouzhi Garden'. 🚗 Ge Garden is famous for its rockery art, with spring, summer, autumn, and winter artificial mountains made of bamboo shoots, lake stones, yellow stones, and Xuan stones, integrating garden design principles and landscape painting theories. Mr. Chen Congzhou, a master of garden art, praised it as a 'unique example in China'. In 2005, Ge Garden was honored as a national AAAA-level tourist attraction, one of the twenty key parks in the country. In 2016, Ge Garden became one of the first batch of national key flower culture bases. 🚗 Famous attractions Four Seasons Artificial Mountain, Southern Residence, Bamboo Variety Viewing Area, Flower Arrangement Area 🚗 Suggested visiting duration 1-2 hours, suitable for all seasons 🚗 Jiangnan style gardens, those who know how to appreciate may find each garden has its own unique charm (of course, each owner has different preferences), like me who doesn't know much about it may think they all look similar, haha. However, when you walk into the large courtyards several times, you can indeed feel the former prosperity of the owners. Yangzhou was once a place where wealthy merchants emerged, and those who are interested can spend more time to explore.

Li Bai wrote, 'In the misty rain of March, I went down to Yangzhou'; Du Mu reminisced, 'A ten-year dream of Yangzhou'; I say, this is the Yangzhou that Emperor Qianlong visited every time he came to the south of the Yangtze River! Of course, you can't miss the various gardens in Yangzhou, After several comparisons, I chose Ge Garden on Dongguan Street. Ge Garden was built during the Ming Dynasty and is the oldest and best-preserved salt merchant's garden in Yangzhou, famous for its delicately stacked rockeries. The garden's owner, Huang Zhiyun, was originally from Hangzhou, and choosing to visit Ge Garden is also to see the mansion of a fellow townsman. 📍 Address: No. 10 Yanfu East Road, Guangling District, Yangzhou City 🚘 Transportation: About 20 yuan by taxi from Yangzhou East Station 🎫 Ticket: 30 yuan per person during the off-season daytime, 45 yuan per person during the peak season, 55 yuan per person at night (including performance) 👉🏻 Tour route: North Gate → Wanzhu Garden → Bamboo West Residence → Congshu Building → Southern Residence → Spring Mountain → Yiyu Pavilion → Summer Mountain → Baoshan Building → Autumn Mountain → Winter Mountain → South Gate 🌱 Ge Garden has three views ❷ View of bamboo: The garden owner has a nature of loving bamboo, and the three leaves of the bamboo resemble the character '个', which is why the garden is named. There are more than 60 varieties of bamboo with nearly 20,000 poles in the garden. ❷ View of rockeries: Spring Mountain uses bamboo-shaped stones to symbolize bamboo shoots after the rain; Summer Mountain uses Taihu stones to simulate summer clouds; Autumn Mountain uses yellow stones to set off the rich autumn colors; Winter Mountain uses Xuan stones to create a snowy scene. ❸ View of the mansion: In addition to the southern residential area, there are also performances such as Qing tunes, ballad singing, dance, and puppet shows during the recent night tours, offering an immersive experience of the exquisite life of the wealthy families in Yangzhou, without fear of sunburn or heat! ❣️ Touring Tips ♡ There are many plants and waterside pavilions in the garden, so be prepared for mosquitoes. ♡ Wearing Hanfu or modern Chinese-style clothing, you can take very stunning photos! ♡ The South Gate is Dongguan Street, which is very lively at night, and you can complete a one-stop experience of eating, drinking, and having fun.
