LINGERING GARDEN, SUZHOU

Lingering Garden, one of the most renowned in China, was originally a private garden built during the Ming Dynasty. Covering an area of nearly 6 acres, the magnificent halls, temples and other buildings blend harmoniously with trees, flowers, water, and rocks. The Garden is divided into four parts.  The middle part is noted for its view of the water; the eastern part includes the Crane House, the Small Garden of Stone Forest, ant the Return-to-Read Study; the northern part is a bonsai garden; and the western part features a beautiful rockery.
