Shuzhuang Garden

Shuzhuang Garden was originally the private garden of Lin Erjia, a wealthy Taiwanese gentry, and was dedicated to the government in the 1950s. Turn it into a park.

Lin Erjia carefully designed the garden, striving to reproduce the style of Banqiao Villa and the charm of Jiangnan gardens. She used a small bay of sloping land to create unlimited space, "Every spring and autumn beautiful day , Climb high and look into the distance, the sea and sky are the same color, almost infinite." All the scenery that can be seen around is included in the embrace of the garden. He set up 10 scenic spots in the garden, including Meishou Hall, Renqiu Pavilion, Zhenshu Pavilion, Forty-four Bridges, Zhaoliang Pavilion, Hard Rock Mountain House, Twelve Cave Sky, Yiaiwu House, Guanchao Tower, and Xiaolan Pavilion, and added The small Banqiao in the Banqiao Villa in Taipei has also been moved here. It is small, unique and unique.

Shuzhuang Garden has many scenery, but the most distinctive ones are:

Zanghai: I couldn’t see the sea along the way. When I got to the garden gate and even entered the gate, I still couldn’t see the sea. There was a wall. The high wall blocked the view, but when I looked back, I saw the plaque "Zanghai" hanging high on the lintel on the inside of the garden gate. I immediately understood the meaning of Zanghai. After turning out of the Moon Cave Gate, I suddenly saw "the sea and the sky are vast", and the sea rushed in. This kind of hiding in advance The technique of exposing the back has achieved surprising results.

Clever borrowing: Lin Erjia made full use of the slope facing the sea, the rocks in the bay, and the rising and falling tides, enclosing the land with steps, building bridges and pavilions, making the originally very narrow bay more beautiful. Taking advantage of the surrounding natural beauty to pave the way, it is transformed into a hierarchical seaside garden that embraces the sea, has a wide field of vision. Especially when walking on the Forty-Four Bridge, facing the vast sea and sky, no one feels that it is small, but they feel that the garden is huge.
