 Traditional
Chinese gardens go back almost 2,000 years to the Han Dynasty though most
Scholar's Gardens date back to the more recent Ming and Qing dynasties.
A Scholar's Garden would have been built by a scholar or an administrator
retiring from the emperor's court. It would have been an enclosed private
garden always associated with a house which, in turn without its garden,
would not have been considered whole.
This garden, designed and built by LAC, is enclosed by walls, a series
of pavilions (eight in all), and covered walkways. These are all organized
in an irregular manner to create in addition to the two major courtyards
a series of six others of varying sizes. |
