Ripples Unstirred: A serene moment by the meandering pond in Jichang Garden

Strolling along the paths of Jichang Garden, each step feels like a journey deep into history. The phrase 'leisurely wandering with a staff, knocking at the cloud gate' from Rong Ru's pen evokes images of ancient figures leisurely moving through this famous garden, accompanied by the shadows of bamboo and the sound of pine waves. 🌸🍃 🚗 Every time I drive by, I am captivated by the beauty of this place and can't help but stop. 'Only for the love of famous gardens does the car frequently halt' is not just a yearning for the beautiful scenery, but also a respect for history and culture. Here, a vivid tapestry is woven with bamboo, pine, and trees, offering a refreshing respite for the soul. 🌳🌲 🏞️ Standing atop Jichang Garden, overlooking the valleys and the solitary pavilion, one can almost hear the ancient flute and poetry recitations. 'The garden's winding pond holds the jade green,' where the clear pond water reflects the surrounding natural beauty. And 'beyond the wall, the fine mountains face each other in green,' where the distant hills complement the garden's scenery, creating a stunning ink painting of the Jiangnan region. 🏞️🏔️ 🕰️ However, time is merciless, taking away the past's splendor and leaving traces of vicissitude. With a sigh, 'the weathered stele eroded by rain is half drifting away,' those stone steles that once witnessed historical changes are now eroded by wind and rain, leaving only broken remnants. 🗿🌧️ Jichang Garden, this poetic place, is not just a tourist attraction, but also a testament to history. Here, we can feel the wisdom and aesthetic of the ancients, as well as experience the ruthlessness of time and the changes it brings. 🏰📜
