Heyuan was originally called He Mansion. It is the first garden in the late Qing Dynasty. There are many rare plants such as ancient trees planted in the garden. The scenery is beautiful and it is worth a visit. There is also a kilometer pavilion, which can see the scenery in the park, which is very beautiful.
As a famous garden in the late Qing Dynasty, Heyuan really reflects the combination of Chinese and Western. There are foreign buildings and gardens, and the promenade connects all the spaces together. It is very thoughtful and creative. I imagine that people living in it at that time must be very comfortable. No matter how rainy or snowy, they can shuttle freely in the promenade. This time I met the bloom of magnolia, and I couldn't help but take a photo of the magnolia with only ten days of flowering. There are also Shi Tao's stacked stones, and the moon in the water. This poetic space is very intoxicating.

He family is a hundred years Wang family, the garden owner He Yu (dao) later generations of talents, we are familiar with the Chinese Academy of Sciences academician, theoretical physicist He Yu academician is its fourth generation of heirs.

Known as the "First Garden of the Late Qing Dynasty", the area is more than 10,000 square meters, and the construction area is more than 7,000 square meters. Heyuan was built by He Wei during the Qing Guangxu years. The stone mountain house is the work of Master Shi Tao Dieshan. There are many celebrities who have lived in Heyuan. Huang Binhong, a famous master of Chinese painting, has come to Yangzhou six times. The residence is on the first floor of the east of the horse riding building. The famous writer Mr. Zhu Qianhua, who has lived in Heyuan for more than five years, his old residence is on the second floor of the east of the horse riding building. The whole garden of Heyuan is divided into four parts: East Garden, West Garden, Garden House, and Pianshi Mountain House. The Pianshi Mountain House is in the south of the East Garden. The garden house is by Dongyuan, Surrounded by the West Garden and the Pianshi Mountain House, the two-story string and cloister in the garden are integrated with the residential front.
The scenery is really beautiful, although the garden is not big, but there are many eyes, close to feel the prosperity and development of a family. It is very suitable for taking pictures in the ancient style. The gardening is in the Republic of China style, Hanfu, and everything to wear. There is even wedding photography here. I feel that there is no off-season here. There are many thieves on weekends. It is really difficult to want others to not be in the mirror.
