Tuìsī Garden

TIME : 2016/2/17 11:57:42

This beautiful 19th-century garden in the east of the Old Town delightfully translates as the ‘Withdraw and Reflect Garden’, so named because it was a Qing government official’s retirement home. The 'Tower of Fanning Delight' served as the living quarters, while the garden itself is a meditative portrait of pond water churning with koi, rockeries and pavilions, caressed by traditional Chinese music.
