China offers travelers plenty of things to do, ranging from treks through the country's mountain ranges to wandering through the historic cities that date back to ancient dynasties.
Take a trip to the Yuyuan Garden to wind through the beautiful aisles of flowers and experience a little bit of Chinese history.
Yuyuan Garden is located in Shanghai, and is an area inside the Yu Gardens, according to CNN. It is a classical Chinese garden that was first established in 1559, as a private escape that was created by Pan Yunduan. He built the area to please his father, who was a high-ranking official in the Ming Dynasty.
The garden has six separate sections and is similar to the famous gardens located in Suzhous, according to the news source. Walk through the Grand Rockery area - which features a 12 meter high huangshi stone that has peaks, cliffs, caves and gorges, along with the Sansui Hall.
The Jade Magnificence Hall is finished with beautiful pieces of rosewood from the Ming Dynasty, that will truly take your breath away.
