Chinese Garden at the Huntington Library

They have opened the new Chinese Garden at the Huntington Library (The Garden of Flowing Fragrance). A Chinese Garden is composed of carefully arranged scenes, with several key elements playing an important part: architecture; water, rocks, and plants; literature and the arts. Poems and names for different places in the garden have been chosen with care ("Terrace of the Jade Mirror" for example). It's a beautiful, peaceful place to visit!
