The garden admission is included in the price of the piano museum. Although the garden incorporates ideas from traditional Chinese gardens, it certainly isn't one! The rock garden portion is slightly bizarre. Nevertheless, everything is pretty, and the walkways around the ponds and alongside the ocean give nice views over the garden, over part of Gulangyu island.

It also looks over part of the port of Xiamen, so you'll see ships anchored offshore, or sometimes coming in or leaving the port. This included a large cruise ship, which was leaving Xiamen while I was in the garden.

This is a private residence donated to state government. Beautiful house with nice garden and breathtaking scenary (hillview and seaview). The famous Piano Musuem is part of the property so you can see both by purchase one ticket.

Used to be a private garden on beach. Garden is well designed so that you can have good views from all angles. Lots of photo opportunities. Admission includes admission to Piano Museum, a worthwhile visit.

This garden is just at the exit from piano museum at Gulangyou. I suggest to see it. It is a composition of some paths walking down to small pond with colorful fish. This walk is just a few minutes so all exiting from museum should take it.

There's a Piano Museum inside the garden for those interested in old vintage pianos.
The garden itself is small and pretty, especially since it's near the sea with a view of a nearby beach, but there are a lot of people walking alongside you as well, which can distract from the charm of the garden. However, it's still a top place to visit when you're at Gulang Yu Islet.

We choose a Saturday to visit Gulangyu and Shuzhuang Garden. So crowed and so hot. If not so many visitors, that would be better. Recommend to visit at the sun set~

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 views from the tops of the hills.

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.

There is a fee to enter this garden, RMB30 per adult but it is worth to pay the entrance fee. Upon entry, there is a museum of personal artifacts and collection of antiques. This museum is fully air conditioned so it was a good way to escape the summer heat (we were there in July). After the museum, it leads to a nice garden and beach front. There is also a garden with typical lake house. Do take pictures there as the background is spectacular.

If you are up to it, climb up to flights of steep steps to visit the Piano Museum, which is also covered under the entrance fee.

My only comment is there is not enough seating area in the gardens for those not keen to climb up to visit the Piano Museum.

Overall, it is worth a visit!
