Greetings from Linxia, where the Red Garden is most remembered
The slowly falling leaves, the shortening of the days, and the gentle change in temperature all seem to remind us that it's time to slow down and experience the healing lifestyle within Linxia city, beyond its bustling fireworks.
Bridges over flowing water, walls of pink and tiles of black, historical sites and famous gardens; gardens have always been a place where people yearn to dwell. In the secluded paths, invite a few old friends, sip a cup of tea, discuss the classics, admire the flowers, smell the fragrance and converse. How free and elegant it is! When searching for the traces of gardens in Linxia, one must visit the Red Garden.
The Red Garden, one of the treasures of classical Chinese gardens, is located at the foot of Taizi Mountain on the banks of the Daxia River in the western suburbs of Linxia City. As an ancient calling card of Linxia, it has attracted numerous tourists over the years and holds many memories for the people of Linxia.
Listen to a melodious ancient tune, seek a glimpse of the scenes from 'Dream of the Red Chamber' under the halo of light and vast misty waves. The Red Garden's scenery is rendered with tender flowing water, connecting pavilions, towers, small bridges, and elegant gardens. It possesses the charming scenery of the water towns of the south of the Yangtze River, with the typical garden style of the Jiangnan region flowing through the Red Garden.
