Accompanied by Chinese garden experts, “See” Yu Garden’s (or the Garden of Youth according to “I Ching”) design principles of “Harmony”, which are the hallmarks for spirituality and moral perfectibility. Meander via the lush greenery and intricate pathways, and explore the cultural symbolism, sayings and historical annals behind Yu Garden’s architectural layout, artistic decoration and plants configuration in 28 artistic spaces across 6 scenic spots. We point out every detail that’s not to be missed. Plants are carefully chosen, not only for beauty but also for symbolism of longevity and moral perfectibility; every stone symbolizes an allegory of wisdom and Tao; every sculpture tells a story–from majestic deities to humble mortals, preserves the cultural heritage and beliefs of generations past.

You might also choose to experience garden's rich spiritual and physical exercises, like qigong, meditation, or tea ceremony. You will leave with a purified mind and body, plus spiritual tendency toward wholeness and cosmological harmony, or even a transcendent state beyond the self (no-self).
