Looking for a relaxing winter getaway? Visit the Garden Expo Park.

People say that winter is a lonely season, but the Garden Expo Park is bathed in just the right amount of sunlight. It's picturesque and poetic, with subtle signs of life in the bleakness and tranquility in the simplicity, immersing visitors in its beauty. "The winter sun hides all things, the warm sunlight penetrates the cold frost, the sparse shadows slant across the golden ground, the fragrance of time delights the hours, it is truly a wonderful time of year." The main exhibition hall of the Garden Expo Park combines traditional Bayu spatial organization with modern architecture. Built against the mountain, it incorporates the surrounding landscape, with inner and outer courtyards showcasing the artistic characteristics of mountain architecture. The main attractions worth visiting in the Garden Expo Park include Chongyun Tower, Jiangnan Garden, International Garden, Bayu Garden, Northern Garden, Lingnan Garden, and Wetland Flower Stream. Jiangnan Garden: Every step reveals a new scene, with white walls and black tiles, winding paths, and uniquely designed pavilions and towers, full of the charm of Jiangnan. International Garden: Located near the main entrance, it features various exhibition gardens, including Chiang Mai Garden (Thailand), Hiroshima Garden (Japan), Jeju Garden (Korea), and San Francisco Garden (USA), offering exotic scenery. Northern Garden: The simple and heavy architecture embodies the unique charm of northern gardens. Bayu Garden: With strong local characteristics, the antique stilted buildings are built by the water, creating a beautiful night view. Lingnan Garden: The unique architectural style makes visitors feel like they are in southern China. Wetland Flower Stream: Built around the lake, with lush trees, it is suitable for fishing, walking, and taking photos. The red plum blossoms in the Garden Expo Park have also entered their best viewing period, mainly distributed in the Jiangnan Garden exhibition area and along the lake surrounding Longjing Academy. The scattered red plum blossoms emit a delicate fragrance in the breeze, adding a touch of elegance to the antique gardens. These buildings, nestled among the mountains and waters, with their upturned eaves and varying heights, create a reflection in the lake, forming an ethereal and elegant landscape, like a beautiful painting of "a gentle breeze around the tower, houses stacked on the hills."
