The central area is the essence of the whole park, with an area of about 18. 5 mu, of which the water surface accounts for 1/3.

The water surface is divided and combined, and the waterfront buildings have different shapes. There are many pavilions with uneven levels.

In the early Wang Humble Administrator's Garden, the humble administrator's garden was handed down from generation to generation, which completely outlined the landscape and style of the humble administrator's garden.
