It was at night when we visited Shuzhuang Garden. Because it was dark and there was few visitors in the garden, rather quiet. My friends and I strolled in the garden, and enjoyed the night view of Sunlight Rock, as well as the sea on the little bridge in the garden. What's more, there is a piano museum in the... More

Shuzhuang Garden offers people a comparative higher place to veiw the sea. I think it is a little boring because not too many things to see.

We strolled through this small garden (relative to the large gardens in other big cities in China) on the way to the Piano Museum, located on the hill on the left side. Good photo opportunities of family members with backdrops of trees, shrubs, bridges, the sea, the beach and small chinese style buildings. Across the sea, on the right, is... More

The designer of this garden deserves a medal. Incorporated into the garden are hills and valleys, the ocean and a fresh water pool, waterfalls and bare rocks, lawns and gardens. And all of this is in a fairly small plot of land with two museums thrown in for good measure! Well worth strolling around the place and enjoying the magnificent... More

there is a piano musem inside the garden. But the presentation is very poor just with pianos standing around without backgroud music or much explanation. The garden is very common in other area of China.

You have to pay rmb30 per person to enter. Its part of Gulangyu Island. It has a walkway beside the sea cliff. Also inside this Shuzhuang Garden is the Piano Museum. It is very picturesque area, we took a lot of beautiful photos here.

The place is large and worthy of an hour or two, but not if you are short of time. If the Kodaisha museum is in operation, then the additional attraction could bring up the status to a must see. As it is now under renovation, I would find it less attractive.

Visit Sunlight Rock (日光岩) when you're here. From the top you can see the entire island. Seems like this garden, it's temple, and sunlight rock are attractions that the Chinese themselves like very much.

This place is very interesting and the piano museum is also inside this place. Lots of nice sea view scenery but the toilets are not very clean here.
