Is the much-criticized and avoided Zhuozheng Garden really worth visiting?

Is the much-criticized and avoided Zhuozheng Garden really worth visiting? My answer is: it's worth it. The points that Zhuozheng Garden gets criticized for are mostly about the 80$ entrance fee and the fact that once you're in, all you can see are people's heads, and the experience is poor on a hot day. I've been to many gardens, you can see my previous notes for guides. But as the first of China's four major gardens, Zhuozheng Garden, with its pavilions, towers, and unique romance, always amazes me every time I visit!! First-time visitors should really come and take a look~ How to avoid the crowd? You can enter the garden at 7:30 in the morning or 17:00 in the afternoon, the weather is not as hot as during the day, and you can avoid large groups of tourists. Last Saturday at 16:30, I personally tested it, the real-time number of people was 2699, from lining up to entering the garden took less than 5 minutes, the overall experience was quite good. Entering September, the peak summer travel season has ended, and there will be fewer people. The unique romance of Zhuozheng Garden The windows of the ear room of the Thirty-six Mandarin Duck Hall are inlaid with blue-purple glazed tiles. It is said that in summer, looking through the window is like looking at a snow scene, which has a cooling effect, super fun~ When the sunlight passes through the glazed tiles and shines on the white wall, the flowing light and shadow are really beautiful! Borrowing the scenery of the North Temple Tower, it makes the garden look huge. You can also go to the back of the Rainbow Pavilion and look at the North Temple Tower through the plum blossom window, which is super impressive. The Haitang Spring Cove has several hawthorn trees, and the ground is paved with hawthorn flower patterns. The guide lady said: In spring, when the hawthorn flowers bloom, you can admire the hawthorn on the tree; when the hawthorn flowers fall in spring, you can count the hawthorn on the ground, really impressed by the romance of the ancients. The gallery bridge of Little Flying Rainbow, the small bridge of the Thirty-six Mandarin Duck Hall, and the long corridor by the water, the reflections in the water are really tear-jerkingly beautiful
