More Than Just a Pagoda: Bonsai and Peaceful Gardens

#hellohalloween
While the pagoda draws the crowds, the wider Huqiu Scenic Area is a beautifully designed park in the classic Jiangnan garden style. The path winding up the hill is lined with serene spots, including the Wanjing Villa, which showcases an exquisite collection of prize-winning Chinese bonsai (penjing)—miniature landscapes that are works of art themselves. Venture into the less-crowded back mountain areas to discover tranquil bamboo groves, secluded ponds, and quaint pavilions, offering peaceful moments of reflection away from the main tourist trail and providing lovely, intimate views of the surrounding nature.
