What travelers say:

As a representative work of classical gardens in Jiangnan, Humble Administrator's Garden has a profound cultural heritage and unique artistic charm. The following are some comments on the Humble Administrator's Garden: long history and deep cultural heritage: The Humble Administrator's Garden was built in Mingzhengde eight years (1513), and after hundreds of years of vicissitudes, it still retains the style of the beginning of the Ming Dynasty. The park integrates the history, legends and stories of Suzhou gardens, and each landscape contains a deep cultural heritage. The layout is exquisite and the artistic conception is profound: the Humble Administrator's Garden is centered on water, and the complete artistic conception is formed through clever layout and careful design. There are many attractions in the park, such as Suyuan and Lingering Garden, which are classic works of Chinese gardens. Each attraction has its own characteristics and echoes each other, which together constitute a beautiful picture. The architectural style is unique and the artistic value is high: the architectural style of the Humble Administrator's Garden is Jiangnan Garden style, and many buildings in the Garden are in the Ming and Qing Dynasties, with unique architectural style. These buildings not only look beautiful, but also have ingenious interior design, showing the unique charm of Chinese classical gardens. At the same time, the Humble Administrator's Garden also uses a wealth of landscape making techniques, such as scenes, barrier scenes, borrowing scenes, frame scenes, etc., fully integrate and play the characteristics of each element, construct and create a wonderful and interesting infinite space consciousness in a limited space. Plenty of plants and pleasant scenery: the gardens are full of plants, trees, shrubs, herbs, aquatic plants, etc. These plants are carefully arranged under the hands of the gardeners, or on the shores of weeping willows, or deep plants; or lotus ponds, or flowers.
