Famous Garden by Green Water/Wild Bamboo Reaching the Sky/Xuzhou Qianlong Imperial Palace

🌈Attraction Features: Stepping into the Xuzhou Qianlong Imperial Palace is like traveling through time, back to the prosperous Qianlong era. This was once the residence of Emperor Qianlong during his southern tours, carrying a rich history and culture. He made six trips south of the Yangtze River in his lifetime, four of which were to Xuzhou, showing a particular fondness for the local scenery. Built against Yunlong Mountain, the palace features red walls and yellow tiles, arranged in a picturesque manner. The majestic palace buildings, shaded by verdant bamboo, with winding corridors and the lingering scent of ink, fully display the imperial style. The stele garden within the palace is unique. With small bridges, flowing water, and a tranquil, elegant atmosphere, the walls of the stele pavilions are inlaid with numerous stone carvings by famous figures such as Su Shi and Yue Fei, allowing visitors to appreciate the art of calligraphy while experiencing the weight of history. ✅Two couplets inscribed by Emperor Qianlong himself: ⭐️"Famous Garden by Green Water, Wild Bamboo Reaching the Sky" ⭐️"A Solitary Peak Stands Tall Outdoors, Numerous Ravines Lie Deep Before the Steps," adding a touch of cultural depth to this garden. 🎟️Ticket Information: Free🆓 🕐️Opening Hours: 9:00–17:00 💗Other Tips: The park is not large, but the scenery is elegant. It is next to the Xuzhou Museum and near Yunlong Lake and Yunlong Mountain Scenic Area, which can be visited together. Parking is in the nearby alleys, which are very crowded, and there may be parking fees.
