Do not come to the Humble Administrator's Garden without a strategy guide

After the sunset glow, the Humble Administrator's Garden shines like gold, and one can enjoy the leisure and contentment, which reflects the humble way of governance! Today, I am sharing a quick tour route of the Humble Administrator's Garden. To facilitate check-ins and let you experience the bright and elegant side of the garden when there are fewer people before 10 am or after 4 pm. If you want a deeper experience, there will be more exciting recommendations in the future. 🌿 Itinerary: 1: After entering, quickly pass through the Eastern Garden and head straight for the Wuzhu Secluded Residence. The Eastern Garden was built after the founding of the country, and you can stroll around it later at your leisure. 2: Walk along the Ping Bridge towards the Yuanxiang Hall, and enjoy the picturesque scenery of one pond and three hills unfolding like a scroll. 3: Arrive at Yuanxiang Hall facing the Xue Xiang Yun Wei Pavilion, or you can go around to the back to take framed photos. On the way, visit the round door of the Loquat Courtyard to take framed photos of the Xue Xiang Yun Wei Pavilion and the Jiashi Pavilion. 4: Xiaocanglang and Xiaofeihong are excellent photography spots, creating a sense of layering and depth. 5: Xiangzhou is a boat-like building. Walking from the stern to the bow, it feels like sitting on a moving boat, which is the best interpretation of the Chinese garden concept of 'a window of inches, an unintentional painting'. 6: Pass through the 'Another World', connecting the Middle and Western Gardens, to take classic framed photos. 7: Come to the Western Garden, watch the Zuoshetongxuan at the turn of the water body, forming a group scene with the roof of the Li Pavilion. Push the window of the Thirty-six Mandarin Duck Hall to enjoy the staggered landscape architecture. 8: Look back from the Luting Pavilion to the Taoying Pavilion, where the winding water system enhances the spatial depth, creating a true 'shadow of the tower'. 9: Follow the water system and admire the undulating and dynamic close-to-water corridor. 10: Push the window of the Yinglou to look southward, and enjoy the excellent reflection in the water. 11: Go up the slope to the Jian Shan Lou, where you can enjoy the red maple in autumn. The first floor has a sense of openness and distance, and in summer, you can enjoy the lotus. 12: The Lotus Breeze Pavilion is an excellent photography spot in summer, where you can feel the fresh and elegant fragrance of the lotus all around. 13: In the Loquat Courtyard, feel the tranquility of the small courtyard, and go to the high places of the Fucui Pavilion and Yi Liang Pavilion in the Western Garden to look afar. 14: Finally, come to the One Pond Three Hills, climb mountains and wade through water, and feel the artistic conception of 'the cicadas are noisier in the silent forest, and the birds are more secluded in the mountain'. The Humble Administrator's Garden is a place full of historical heritage and the charm of private gardens in the south of the Yangtze River. I hope everyone can find their own beautiful moments here.
