brief introduction:

chinese gardens are made to resemble natural landscapes on a smaller scale. traditional chinese gardens fall into three categories, namely, imperial, private, and landscape gardens.

here zuibai chi is one of the private gardens, which was used by its owner 'dong qichang' (a famous artist in ming dynasty) for writing poetry and drinking. now the inner garden is the original, the outer garden is newly built. there is a square pond in the center, surrounded by pavilions, terraces, chambers, waterside pavilions and long corridors. there is also a wall with latticed widows separating the scenic spots of the thatched cottage, the hexagonal pavilion, and four-sided hall and so on.
