Adjacent to Baishi Bridge and built in 1953, the Zizhuyuan Park features picturesque bamboo garden which compares favorably with Shunan Bamboo Sea, and meadows interspersed with bizarre stones which are on a par with Rabbit Ear Mountain. Nanchang River and Shuangzi Canal pass through the park, shaping an overall pattern of “three lakes, two islets, one dike, one river and one canal”. It is a natural park abundant in landscape sceneries which are dominated by lush and verdant bamboos. Bamboo garden makes this park become a Triton of the minnows.
