Guyi Garden
February 26, 2015Posted by Kanga. Please do not reblog.
We spent the afternoon in Guyi Garden. It was a long taxi ride (76 yuan – $12 USD – 45 AED). The admission is 12 yuan per person ($2 USD – 7 AED), so getting there is the expensive part. There is a metro station, but it is a bit of a walk. We took the metro home, but it was easier to find the place by taking a taxi.
The garden dates to the Ming Dynasty, as does Yuyuan Garden. It has been renovated multiple times since then.
There is art everywhere – in the stone walkways, in the ceilings of every structure, and in the stone structures. The beauty of nature is not overwhelmed by the human art. They really knew how to balance and co-exist with nature.
Spring is beginning. Trees are beginning to bloom.
