Ge Yuan

A forest of bamboo

Bamboo forest inside GeYuan, a private garden built by an 18th century YangZhou salt merchant. Very impressive indeed - it covers an enormous amount of land, with pavilions, lakes, temples, and a vast array of corridors and courtyards. A prime example of the beauty and flavour of ZheJiang.
