Changzhou Yueyuan Garden

　　    Changzhou Yueyuan Garden is situated within the current Second People's Hospital of the city. It was purchased and renovated during the Qing Dynasty by Zhao Qi. The garden is famed for its extraordinary rockeries, including the celebrated Twelve Peaks of Yueyuan—namely Lingyan (Spirit Cliff), Zhoubi (Wrinkled Jade), Yufurong (Jade Lotus), Duxiu Peak (Peerless Peak), Xianrenzhang (Immortal’s Palm), Kunshan Pianying (Kunshan Reflection), Yuping (Jade Screen), Duoyun (Fluttering Cloud), Wuxiu (Dancing Sleeve), Tuofeng (Camel Hump), and Feilai Yijiao (Flying Corner). There are also 24 scenic spots such as Meiwu Charm (Plum Grove Charm), Haitang Chunxie (Crabapple Spring Pavilion), Xiaoting Wanyue (Moon Viewing at the Small Pavilion), and Chengjiao Fanchuan (Sails at the City Corner).

　　　　    Currently, the garden is lush with flowers and trees, crisscrossed by clear flowing streams. Various uniquely shaped rocks line the pond, while stacked stones form hills in the water. Stone pavilions and winding bridges meander through the landscape, and amid jagged rocks, wisteria twists upward through crevices like emerald canopies. The garden excels in showcasing the serene beauty of wooded hills and valleys and is now a municipal-level cultural heritage site.
