I did not know an admittance fee was charged and the garden is walled and very private. Both made me happy because it's not in the best neighborhood. Lots of transients. Inside, it a tranquil oasis. Very friendly staff.

From the moment I entered the garden, I felt as though I was in Suzhou, China, at the Master-of-Nets Garden, which the Lan Su Garden strongly resembles. The layout of the buildings and walkways is similar. Even the mosaic...

Got there just in time to watch a local troop perform with the 'lions' for the fall festival. What fun!
If you like hidden gardens in cities, then you should consider spending a little time at Lan Su.
Coming from the Southwest, I found many of the plants fascinating.
Doesn't necessarily require a long visit and is easily walkable from...

The Chinese Garden is a beautiful tranquil experience. Lunch in the tea room was a real treat. The food and live music were wonderful. The moon cakes were delightful. The water, plants and rocks exude serenity.

Beautiful area, yes it is small as others state and you do go thru rather quickly but it is worth the admittance. Just sit and enjoy.
