Zen-inspired Haven at Huizhou Garden

Huizhou Garden is a purely Japanese-style garden, meticulously crafted by Japanese artisans to perfectly recreate the classical aesthetics of the Edo period. The garden is centered around the "pond strolling style," with winding paths guiding visitors through koi ponds, red bridges, dry landscapes, and tea rooms.

Intricately pruned maple trees, cherry blossoms, and bamboo groves transform with the seasons—spring cherry blossoms resemble snow, while autumn maples blaze like fire. The dry landscape garden, paved with white sand, uses abstract lines to symbolize flowing water, embodying the Zen philosophy of wabi-sabi. The tea room offers an authentic matcha experience, with wind chimes gently ringing under the eaves, reflecting the philosophy of "ichi-go ichi-e" (treasuring each unique encounter). This tranquil garden, hidden within the city, is a perfect retreat for finding peace and appreciating beauty.
