Chinese Aesthetics·Suzhou Gardens

Location: Suzhou's Humble Administrator's Garden Every step reveals a scene so exquisitely beautiful that it defies description. One cannot help but marvel at the sophisticated aesthetic of the ancients. A gentle breeze wafts through the garden, and the crabapple blossoms sway like little pink bells in the wind. Paired with the garden's framed views, they fill the scene with the colors of spring in the Jiangnan region. Warm spring sunlight is refracted by the lake's surface, Casting shimmering golden reflections on the ancient walls of the garden. In an instant, Suzhou transforms into the poetic and picturesque city of Gusu as depicted in paintings. This is what Li Qingzhao wrote about in her poetry: "I ask the person rolling up the screen, but he says the crabapple remains the same. Do you know, do you know? It should be that the green is plump and the red slender." Pro tip: Be sure to choose a sunny day, the feeling is completely different!
