Fuzhou West Lake Park's Guizhai, a garden filled with inescapable light and shadow paintings 🍃
Today, I discovered a magical photo spot in West Lake Park—Guizhai!!
With white walls and black tiles paired with dappled tree shadows, it's like a scene straight out of an ink painting 🎋
This small courtyard hides the exquisite charm of Suzhou gardens 🏞️
Through the hexagonal door, you can see rockeries and bamboo groves.
Sit on the stone railing and listen to the gentle chime of wind bells 🎐
Even the interplay of light and shadow here seems to be writing poetry, and the best part is, it's not crowded at all!
🌟 Photo Tips:
The lighting after 3 PM is absolutely stunning! Tree shadows dance on the pink walls, and every shot captures the poetic essence of "walls as canvas, shadows as ink." It's recommended to wear a qipao or modern Chinese-style outfit. Standing by the flower-patterned window and glancing back will instantly transport you to the Jiangnan dream 🍃
