🌿【Nanning Garden Expo Park must visit! Podocarpus Garden: A Secret Zen Realm in a Landscape Painting】🌿

Want to find a spot in Nanning where you can experience the beauty of classical gardens and take fairy-like photos? **Podocarpus Garden** is definitely your first choice! This is the "front door" of Nanning Garden Expo Park. Inspired by traditional Chinese freehand landscape painting, it integrates the ecological restoration of the mine pit to create a poetic space with a different view at every step.

📍 **Highlights**:
✅ **"Earth Bonsai" Design**: Cleverly utilize the mine terrain to create streams, waterfalls, and koi ponds, recreating the classical aesthetics of "although made by man, it seems to be created by nature."
✅ **343 rare Podocarpus trees**: including species imported from Japan, Lanyu, Taiwan, and local species in Guangxi. The trees are vigorous and upright, symbolizing "longevity and good fortune". Every shot is an ancient-style blockbuster.
✅ **Three-Distance Concept**: Drawing on the Northern Song Dynasty landscape painting theory, it creates a sense of hierarchy of "high, deep, and flat". Standing in the Pixia Pavilion and looking down, it feels like being in a long scroll of ink painting.
✅ **Smart Koi Pond**: 53 giant koi swim in it, the longest of which is nearly 1 meter long. The red and white stripes contrast with the clear water, symbolizing continuous good luck.
✅ **Misty Forest Secret Realm**: In the early morning or after the rain, the valley is shrouded in mist, and coupled with the pine forest plank road, it feels like entering a fairyland.
