Reader comments
This book is very good! I particularly enjoyed the ideas in the book about garden design, which made me understand that every person and every place has a unique fit. Mr. Ji Cheng is really wise and his views are very enlightening. Moreover, the annotations in this book are also very detailed, which makes it easier for me to understand the gardening wisdom of the ancients. I think this book is a good book worth reading for people who like garden art.
Where we can't see it, the ancients have written it down for us. The Chinese context between the lines makes people inherit it unconsciously. This garden history is worthy of our reference and investigation.
