Fang Tower Garden, the landmark of Changshu

Changshu has Zeng Zhao Garden, Yan Garden, and Fang Tower Garden, all of which are typical scenic views of gardens in the south of the Yangtze River. Although they are all gardens, there are some differences, and I think the most magnificent is Fang Tower Garden. Especially its pavilions, terraces, and corridors are winding and varied. Fang Tower Garden is a classical garden newly built on the site of ancient relics from the Song Dynasty, named after the square tower in the garden. The full name of the square tower is "Chongjiao Xingfu Temple Tower", which has four sides and nine levels, and is a symbolic building of the ancient city of Changshu, built during the Southern Song Dynasty. The square tower, along with the ancient well and ginkgo from the Song Dynasty, are known as the 'Three Treasures in the Garden'. The architecture of Fang Tower Garden is all in imitation of the Song Dynasty style, which is not only splendid and magnificent, with the charm of a royal garden, but also adopts the winding and varied techniques of gardens in the south of the Yangtze River, with the complementing features of curved bridges, pavilions, verandas, water pavilions, rocks, and plants.
