Baocheng Stone Garden
Baocheng Stone Garden is a national AAAA-level tourist attraction and a science education base.
Located in Baocheng New Village, Shuangqiaohe Town, Jinnan District, it is currently the world's largest artificial stone forest made of natural Lingbi stones. It houses dozens of types of rare and unique stones, totaling over 4,000 pieces, primarily featuring Lingbi stones—renowned as the "No. 1 Stone under Heaven"—petrified wood, a treasure among mountain rocks, and Taihu stones. The stones collected in this garden adhere to the principle of being derived from nature yet elevated beyond it, arranged according to their natural forms, offering high ornamental and collectible value. Among the most eye-catching is the "Buddha Meditating," a stone standing 10.07 meters tall and weighing 73 tons, acclaimed as the "Largest Stone in Asia." The stone garden is divided into viewing areas such as the Jiangnan Garden, Botanical Garden, and Zoo, with special attractions including cockfighting, dogfighting, and fishing competitions.
