Yy Yuan Garden Click on any image for an larger view.
Yu
Yuan is located next to Old Town and is protected by high walls. It was
built by a Ming official, Pan Yunduan, for his father and completed in
1537.
Yu
Yuan translates literally to "fish garden." The placement of
fish here is indeed as beautiful and harmonious as any true garden. Lotus
ponds with Yu, or goldfish, bridges and winding paths are complemented
by pavilions, corridors and greenery. White walls topped by an undulating
dragon divide the garden.
