Chinese Literati Gardens

Chinese classical gardens, also known as "literati gardens," reflect the cultural traditions of the Ming and Qing Dynasties. Scholars, literati, painters, and gardeners sought solace in nature, embodying literary thoughts in garden construction. As Mr. Chen Congzhou stated, the garden and literature are inseparable, with the construction of the garden stemming from literary thoughts and its existence relying on literature for transmission. This intertwining relationship underscores the deep cultural significance of Chinese classical gardens.
