The garden has a perfect history, too. It was built in 1986 by over 50 craftsmen from China and it took over 950 crates of traditional material to be built. What is fascinating about this garden construction is that they used 14th century methods – no glue, screws or power tools were used when building it.

If you are interested in visiting this garden, you can also experience free guided tours and traditional Chinese tea. It is a good place to take children, too. One reviewer said, “This is right in the city, but as soon as you walk through the gate, you feel like you have entered a whole new world. I highly recommend taking a guided tour. Well worth it!”
