Shuzhuang Garden

Built in 1931, Shuzhuang Garden is located in the south of the island, facing the sea and against the Sunlight Rock, with tourist village in the east and the Gangzihou Beach Baths in the west. Originally it was the private villa of a local celebrity Lin Erjia and was transformed into a garden open to the public in 1955.

The whole garden can be divided into two parts——Canghai Garden for sea views and Bushan Garden for hill views. Each part has five sightseeing spots. Walking on the meandered “Forty-four Bridge”, tourists would feel as if they were walking on water. And “Twelve-Cave Paradise”, the tortuous, interlinked and spiraled rockery built on the hill, are especially interesting. The scenic spots in the garden are well proportioned, complementary and harmonious. The garden is on the sea and the sea is included in the garden. The garden combines the beauty of exquisite garden with vigorous sea view of splashing waves and hovering seagulls. Activity and inertia contrast and complement each other. Visitors are always attracted and enchanted by the beautiful scenes.

Admission fee: RMB ￥ 30 per person
