[2025 Yangzhou Attraction] Travel Guide for Geyuan Garden (Updated Feb)

Ge Garden, named after bamboo and famous for its stones, is the oldest and best preserved salt merchant garden in Yangzhou. If 'March fireworks in Yangzhou' is the endorsement written by Li Bai for Yangzhou, then 'the best place in the west of bamboo' is the promotion given by Jiang Kui to Ge Garden. The lush green bamboo separated by a wall separates the hustle and bustle of Dongguan Street and soothes the anxiety and impatience brought by my hurried journey. 'Prefer to eat without meat, rather than live without bamboo', the owner of Ge Garden, Huang Yingtai, cherishes and loves bamboo, even changed his name to 'Zhiyun', and planted his residence full of lush bamboo. Naming the garden 'Ge' is not only a clever take on the charm of the Chinese character and shape of bamboo; the three strokes in the painting also represent the perfect realm of the three fullness of fortune, salary, and longevity. This is also the most famous classical garden in Yangzhou besides Slender West Lake - if you don't come to Ge Garden, you haven't been to Yangzhou. Four Seasons Rockery: A mountain has many seasons, and a season is in many mountains Chinese freehand brushwork is committed to integrating thousands of weather in a square inch. A long scroll of the four seasons is also condensed into an eternal real scene by Ge Garden. 'Spring mountain is light and like a smile, summer mountain is green and like a drop, autumn mountain is clear and like makeup, winter mountain is bleak and like sleep', and the winter and spring mountains are separated by a wall. Through the hole in the west wall of the winter mountain, you can glimpse the stalagmites at the entrance of the garden outside - winter is here, will spring be far away? Admiring the autumn mountain in autumn is just right: the craftsman cleverly borrows the texture and unique color of the newly built yellow stone, and constructs a rugged and changeable three-dimensional landscape in the square inch of the world. Standing on the Buddha Yun Pavilion on the top of the mountain, you can overlook the autumn mountain below, and you can look far away to the Slender West Lake to the north. The mountain is also planted with ancient cypresses, red maples and other colorful and angular plants, which are commensurate with the handsome mountain body, making this live 'Autumn Mountain Sunset' picture always new. Baoshan Building: Don't go out and the sky is spring, and the dust horses are all resting The slender Baoshan Building embraces the summer and autumn mountains with a long corridor, hence the name. The garden has the saying of 'mustard sumeru' and 'pot middle world', and the title of Baoshan Building 'Pot Sky from Spring' also means to see the big from the small. It is like a time and space tunnel, collecting spring, summer, autumn and winter, heaven and earth, day and moon: climbing the building and looking, you can overlook the clear pool and mountain stone flowers and trees under the building, as far as the entrance of the spring mountain; to the north, you can look far away. Yangzhou city scenery, hear the voices of people in the market; walking along the long corridor in the building, there are exquisite and transparent summer and majestic and heavy autumn within a hundred steps. Wan Bamboo Garden: The green shadow shakes the sky and the blue clouds are low, and the bamboo dances with the wind and the rhyme is long Bamboo is the spirit of Ge Garden. In Wan Bamboo Garden, there are now more than 60 kinds of ornamental bamboo and more than 20,000 poles. There is a pavilion in the depths of the bamboo forest, named after Wang Wei's poem 'Bamboo Pavilion'. The couplet in the pavilion 'For the heavy frost festival, can be empty to respond to the heart of things' also reflects Huang Zhiyun's love for the bamboo's spirit. Standing in the hexagonal pavilion surrounded by bamboo trees on all sides, waiting for the breeze to pass through the bamboo tips, the bamboo shadows swaying, listening to the clear and unique sound of the bamboo leaves, I can't help but think: when the 'Seven Sages of the Bamboo Forest' in the Wei and Jin Dynasties lived under the bamboo and sang happily, Is it so comfortable and hearty? 'Spring, summer, autumn and winter mountain light is different, the wind is clear and the dew bamboo shadow is colorful', come to Ge Garden in autumn, you can enjoy the fragrant osmanthus, golden ginkgo, and fiery maple's strong autumn rhyme at the same time. 📍'Ge Garden': No. 10 Yanfu East Road, Guangling District 💰Tickets: 30r  Ge Garden

🌿 (I've seen the gardens and taken a bath, but there are some pitfalls I must tell you about 💔) 🚗 Transportation tips ▪️ Choose "Yangzhou East Railway Station" for high-speed rail! Taking a taxi to the city center is 15 yuan cheaper than from Yangzhou Station ▪️ Don't rent an electric bike in the city! The cobblestone roads in the old town will shake your soul out ▪️ Use the "Yangzhou Traffic Code" mini program for bus cards (30 yuan is enough for 3 days) ⚠️ Avoid: Wenchang Road is so congested during rush hour that you'll question your life choices, shared bikes are more reliable 🍜 Food recommendations 🔥 Must-eats ▶ Jiangjiaqiao Dumpling Noodles (7 yuan/bowl with pepper soup base, be careful of the juicy potstickers) ▶ Xiaojuelin Vegetarian Restaurant (18 yuan for spicy duck neck, so spicy you can't stop) ▶ Fanji Huoshao (Egg-filled pancake version of Huoshao, 6 yuan with pork loin is enough) 💣 Avoid ▪️ Dongguan Street "Yangzhou Fried Rice Assassin" (38 yuan/portion is not as good as a roadside stall) ▪️ Internet-famous morning tea "Quyuan" (2-hour queue at 5:30, not as good as a neighborhood tea house) ▪️ Pishi Street Bamboo Tube Milk Tea (28 yuan = photo prop, bamboo tube is recycled) 📍 Route planning tips ✅ Lazy person's highlights Day 1: Slender West Lake (free entry before 6:30) → Daming Temple Vegetarian Meal → Scrub House Day 2: Grand Canal Museum (wear Hanfu and take photos in Hall 13) → Shaobo Ancient Town Day 3: Geyuan Rockery Maze → Shigong Temple Ginkgo → Return ✅ Off-the-beaten-path → Erfen Mingyue Tower (free mini garden for photos) → Guanyin Mountain (local incense burning place, Tang-style architecture beats internet-famous temples) → Gaoyou Qingshuitan (1-hour drive to see wild egrets, 30 yuan ticket is worth it) 💣 Pitfalls to avoid 1️⃣ Choose "Water Bus" (60 yuan/person) for Slender West Lake boat tour, don't charter a rowing boat! 2️⃣ Choose the 198 yuan package at the Scrub House (38 yuan is only 10 minutes of perfunctory service) 3️⃣ Don't rent an audio guide at the Grand Canal Museum! Scan the exhibit QR codes for free audio 4️⃣ Buy Huangyu Old Goose at 3 pm for the freshest, vacuum packaging will change the taste 📌 Advice from five experiences 🔸 Don't stay on Dongguan Street with elderly people! The cobblestone roads will ruin your suitcase wheels 🔹 Wear soft-soled shoes! 20,000 steps a day is not a myth 🔸 Don't get a garden card! Geyuan + Heyuan joint ticket is more cost-effective 🔹 Go to the "Yangzhou Scrub House" main store for the Three Knives experience (intangible cultural heritage master in residence) (After being pushed off the bridge by an auntie tour group at Slender West Lake, I realized: Yangzhou's beauty needs to be savored quietly, but it's really hard to do during holidays 😭) 💬 "What other exclusive tips do you have for Yangzhou? Let's save each other in the comments!"

Every year, when the autumn wind blows, it's time to enjoy the chrysanthemums in early winter. In addition to its bamboo and rockeries, Yangzhou's Ge Garden is also one of the first national flower culture bases. The "Lan Garden" in the garden is home to precious flower bonsai. During the chrysanthemum viewing season, many rare single-petal chrysanthemums are placed along the road to the Lan Garden and on both sides of the flowerbed gate. Since ancient times, chrysanthemums have been a symbol of integrity and elegance, and are known as one of the "Four Gentlemen" along with plum blossoms, orchids, and bamboo. Chrysanthemums are perennial plants and can be divided into wild, medicinal, and ornamental varieties. Ornamental chrysanthemums are cultivated for viewing in late autumn and early winter, and have a history of more than 2,000 years. Ornamental chrysanthemums can be divided into single-petal, tower, and cliff varieties. Most of the chrysanthemums in Ge Garden are single-petal, meaning one flower per plant. The larger the flower, the rarer it is. The petals can be flat, spoon-shaped, or tubular, and can be needle-shaped, thread-shaped, claw-shaped, hook-shaped, or ball-shaped. The rarer the color, the more precious the flower. Ge Garden displays these unique single-petal chrysanthemums: "Green Peony," "Red Flag," "Huang Shigong," "Panlong Beauty," "Golden (Silver) Back Red (Pink)," "Ten Zhang Bead Curtain," and more. Each one is a rare treasure and a top-quality flower. Of course, don't worry about the names of the flowers. Since ancient times, there have been many "chrysanthemum spectrums," and the names of flowers with the same shape vary greatly, but they are all "beautiful" names that reflect people's perception of elegance. When visiting the gardens of Jiangnan, seeing these precious chrysanthemums is a pleasant surprise.

When the cold wind blows, Ge Garden in Yangzhou puts on its most charming outfit of the year. In this season, Ge Garden is no longer just a garden, but a colorful and layered work of art worth savoring. Ge Garden is a typical Jiangnan private garden, adjacent to the bustling Dongguan Street. In the 23rd year of the Jiaqing reign of the Qing Dynasty (1818 AD), Huang Zhiyun expanded the garden on the site of the Ming Dynasty Shouzhi Garden, forming today's Ge Garden. Although the overall architectural style of Ge Garden is mainly Jiangnan garden style, it also reflects the attempt of combining Chinese and Western styles in some details. However, this attempt is not the main feature of the architectural style of Ge Garden, but exists as an embellishment and supplement. It is said that the owner of the garden, Huang Zhiyun, loved bamboo, and the bamboo leaves were shaped like the Chinese character "个" (ge), so the "个" element was cleverly integrated into the architectural design of Ge Garden. For example, the windows, door lintels, and other details in the garden are decorated with the "个" shape, which not only adds to the artistic beauty of the garden but also reflects the aesthetic taste of the garden owner. Walking along the winding paths, shuttling between the rockeries, you will sometimes encounter a small pavilion, and sometimes see a clear pool of water reflecting the surrounding scenery. Ge Garden is also famous for its rockery art. The rockeries are numerous but not chaotic, and the ancient cypress trees on the rocks are lush, giving a sense of verdant greenery. The four-season rockeries in the garden are made of bamboo shoots, lake stones, yellow stones, and Xuan stones, showing the different scenery of the four seasons. During the Tongzhi reign, Ge Garden was sold to Li Wen'an, a salt merchant from Dantu, Zhenjiang. The Li family owned Ge Garden for 60 years, the longest time, during which they gradually improved Ge Garden, making it the most complete period of Ge Garden, and most of the rockeries were built with the ballast stones of the Li family's fleet. Today, Ge Garden is not only one of the top ten famous gardens in China, but also one of the heritage sites of the Yangzhou section of the Grand Canal, and has been listed as a World Cultural Heritage. Tips: Ge Garden is adjacent to Dongguan Street. After visiting Ge Garden, you can stroll around Dongguan Street, buy some Yangzhou gifts to take home, or take photos. We recommend the Assan Folk Huaiyang Cuisine restaurant on Dongguan Street.

This Garden is absolutely fantastic to visit, but you must go early to avoid too many tourists. This garden makes you relax, and you must enjoy the surroundings of the beautiful historical buildings and well-kept gardens . #historicallandmarks

In the 23rd year of the Jiaqing reign of the Qing Dynasty (1818 AD), Huang Zhiyun, the chief salt merchant of the Lianghuai region, established Ge Garden on the site of the Ming Dynasty's Shouzhi Garden. Liu Fenggao's 'Record of Ge Garden' notes: 'The garden's ponds and pavilions are serene, with clear water and lush trees, and it is planted with ten thousand bamboo stalks, hence the name Ge Garden.' During the Tongzhi period, Ge Garden was sold to Li Wen'an, a salt merchant from Dantu, Zhenjiang. Later, the Li family incurred official debts, and warlord Xu Baoshan forced the Li family to use Ge Garden to repay the debt. During the Xianfeng period of the Qing Dynasty, Ge Garden was burned by soldiers. Although it was not severely damaged, it gradually fell into decline. After the founding of the People's Republic of China, it was restored several times and regained its former glory. In 1913, Xu Baoshan was assassinated by revolutionaries, and in 1926, the Li family relinquished Ge Garden. Subsequently, Ge Garden changed hands several times, belonging to the Li family, the Zhu family, and others. In 1988, Ge Garden was designated as the third batch of 'National Key Cultural Relics Protection Units' by the State Council. In 2005, Ge Garden was rated as a national AAAA-level tourist attraction.

In March, the trees in Yangzhou begin to turn green, and various spring flowers bloom. Coming from the cold Beijing, the first moment feels refreshing.

Yangzhou Ge Garden, one of the Four Great Gardens of China Located in the northeast of Guangling District, inside Dongguan Street, along the river with Shi Kefa, Tianning Temple 07:15-17:00 Ticket price: 50 yuan I remember the first time I came, I used the Yangzhou annual pass. At that time, there were not so many tourists in Yangzhou, and the garden was full of residents taking morning walks, which felt particularly good. Now there are really a lot of people, and the 'Spring, Summer, Autumn, and Winter' scenic spots are a bit crowded. Ge Garden is famous for its bamboo and rocks, after all, 'Ge' is half of the word 'bamboo'. Baoshan Building, Qingyi Pavilion, Zhuqiu Pavilion, Yiyu Pavilion are concentrated scenic spots in the garden. The mountain views of spring, summer, autumn, and winter can also be seen here. The strange rocks behind Yiyu Pavilion are also worth a closer look, as they hide many animals. The Guanyun Pavilion is fenced off and no longer accessible. It used to offer a panoramic view of the old streets of Yangzhou, but it's unclear whether it's under renovation or closed due to safety concerns. The main house is marked with 'Lifelong Peace', but it's too crowded to step inside, so I quickly ran out for some fresh air.
