Chinese elements in a foreign land

In this small town brimming with architectural heritage, a Chinese garden named Lan Yuan stands out brilliantly. Here, visitors from all over the world are captivated by the garden's rich Eastern cultural essence, and they can't help but be intoxicated by its charm... Lan Yuan is located in the heart of Dunedin, exuding authentic Chinese ambiance. Almost all the building materials are sourced from China, meticulously designed and crafted by artisans from its sister city, Shanghai. At the entrance of Lan Yuan stands a Chinese-style archway, with upturned eaves and ornately carved beams, all of which are imbued with an ancient Chinese aura. Stepping into the garden, pavilions, towers, courtyards, terraces, and the scenic landscape are filled with the charm of gardens from the Jiangnan region... The winding corridors, small bridges over flowing water, and weeping willows fully showcase the enchanting allure of Jiangnan gardens... Immersed in Lan Yuan, your breath is filled with the scent of China... your vision is filled with the graceful beauty of Jiangnan gardens... Even here, in the bustling city, it is a corner of cool tranquility, a particularly suitable place for meditation🧘...
