Suzhou Gardens

Above there is heaven, below there are Suzhou and Hangzhou. The paradise on earth is hidden in the classical Chinese gardens, where you find yourself among the bizarre mountains and rocks, small bridges over flowing water, and pavilions soaring into the sky, it indeed feels like being in a carefree paradise. The Chinese garden system, alongside the Western estates and West Asian palaces, is recognized as one of the three major garden systems in the world. The Suzhou gardens are undoubtedly a precious treasure of traditional Chinese architectural art, and a concentrated expression of the literati's pursuit of spiritual enjoyment.
