Description

The Nanshan Botanic Garden covers an area in excess of 550 hectares on the South Mountain of the Southern Bank District. While much of the garden is set aside as forested area, there is a multitude of planted gardens and rare plants. The Special Plant Garden is filled with fragrant camellias, pretty orchids and several kinds of roses. The Ecologically Protected Garden is due to be expanded soon and will continue in its aim to conserve and preserve rare plants. Although many of the plants flower in the summer, there are enough plants here to ensure that all year round, one area of the garden will be in bloom.

Hidden in amongst the planted gardens are any number of pretty buildings, including the Tushan Temple, the Water Ruins of Yu and the Tang Dynasty Wenfeng Tower, which have been used over the centuries as places of learning and residences.
