江南古典私家园林（英文版）

　　To bui1d a garden is to bui1d a paradise. As the tangib1e expression of wonder， gardens are intended to be peacefi11 retreats and resting p1aces for the sou1. Standing in the gardens， we not on1y see pavi1ions， pagodas， terraces， mountains， water， f1owers and grass，but a1so sense what Chinese peop1e of centuries past appreciated and be1ieved. From Taoism they took the concept of 1etting thingstake their own course， so they imitated the natura1 f1ow of rivers and 1akes.
