Things to see and do District Of Jiading 嘉定区

Created between 1522 and 1619 by Zhu Sansong, a craftsman specialising in bamboo engraving, this garden was destroyed during the war against the Japanese in 1937-1945. The current package is a reconstruction of the late 1950 s: the garden is now 6 hectares against only 1,8 hectares.

Located in the temple of Confucius, the "Mare de reunion des dragons" (named because of its winding shape) was dug in 1588, under the Ming, and then integrated into a traditional garden. At the centre of the water plan emerges a small island, Yingkui hill (symbolizing five dragons playing with a jade pearl) built in 1660. The garden underwent a significant expansion in the late 1970 s a Qing theatre Scene (1888) from Shanghai installed there: a finely decorated artwork, the main attraction of the site.

This small village has a quiet atmosphere and a little over time. A number of interesting sights can be found in the alleys of the village.
