Last updated 2026-11-12 — Ganzhou Park is the earliest comprehensive park in the urban area of Ganzhou, covering a total area of 2.97 hectares. It was originally the administrative office of the Nangang Provincial Governor and was established in the eighth year of the Hongzhi reign during the Ming Dynasty (1495) by the imperial censor Jin Ze. In the fourth year of the Kangxi reign (1665) during the Qing Dynasty, the governorship was abolished and the site became the Office of the Nanan Dao. In the 23rd year of the Kangxi reign, the regional inspector Ding Wei converted the left section into Piyuan Garden. By the 24th year of the Daoguang reign (1844), the garden featured structures such as Fengtai Mountain, convenience pools, Chunyu Pavilion, Fumin Hall, and Magnolia Twin Trees Hall. In the summer of 1933, the Ganzhou Municipal Government turned the former office site into Ganzhou Park, which was renamed Zhongzheng Park in 1944. After the founding of the People’s Republic of China, it regained its original name, Ganzhou Park.
