The Lion Grove Garden in Suzhou
Adjacent to the Humble Administrator's Garden, the Lion Grove Garden (aka Lion Forest Garden) is the only garden having survived from the end of the Yuan dynasty to the present day. The idea came form Buddhism. The well-known Yuan artist Ni Zan (Yunlin) painted a scroll of the Lion Forest Garden. Emperors Kangxi and Qianlong visited it several times and made replicas of the garden at Yuan Ming garden and the Imperial Mountain Resort respectively.
