Had to visit the Humble Administrator’s Garden, of course. Good to see the maintenance crews in action. The famous bits are good, but I liked some other gardens better.
I really liked the Lingering Garden.
I LOVED Surging Wave Pavilion (Canglang, built by Northern Song poet Su Sunqin – see plan)- lots of lovely bamboo, and few visitors.
The Garden of Cultivation was fun to find, and delightfully compact.
Maybe one day I will see the Master of the Nets Garden. Any of these stills could be a painting. A tour of some of the gardens.
