Classical Gardens Of Suzhou,China.




The classical gardens of Suzhou, Jiangsu Province, China date back to the 6th century BCE when the city was founded as the capital of the Wu Kingdom. Inspired by these royal hunting gardens built by the King of the State of Wu, private gardens began emerging around the 4th century and finally reached the climax in the 18th century. Today, more than 50 of these gardens are still in existence,and many gardens  are regarded as the finest embodiments of Chinese “Mountain and Water” gardens.
