Songming Garden is located in Jiading, Shanghai, on a site of approxi-mately 3.5 mu.
The owner鈥檚 original intention was to create a garden devoted solely to the enjoyment of tea.

The design concept of 鈥淪ongming Garden鈥� draws its inspiration from the Orchid Pavilion Gathering. Wang Xizhi鈥檚 鈥淧reface to the Poems Composed at the Orchid Pavilion鈥� depicts a millennium-old springtime festival held beside flowing water鈥攁 celebration of landscape beauty and convivial joy through which he meditated on the impermanence of life.

The design does not merely seek to provide a place for tea drinking; rather, it aspires to fashion a literati retreat where emotions are en-trusted to mountains and waters. The entire layout unfolds along a sin-gle watercourse. A clear stream鈥攏ow swift, now gentle鈥攂ecomes both the secret realm for unburdening one鈥檚 thoughts and a natural bar-rier separating the garden from its surroundings. Public green space to the west is screened off by the water, while all outdoor activities within the main garden area are arranged along its banks. Tea pavilions settle lightly at the water鈥檚 edge, disposed in an unhurried, meandering man-ner.

House and water, water and person鈥攎ountains are shaped, trees are nurtured; dense woods and tall bamboos are cultivated. Space is not defined by courtyard walls; instead, one finds oneself already within for-est and spring, seated beside the winding stream where the wine cups once floated.
The appearance of this garden is not confined to the traditional ideal of 鈥渄eep courtyards鈥�; it must also reflect upon its role in the contemporary world.
