Shuzhuang Garden is located on the south side of Gulangyu island, Fujian Province. Built in 1931, it was originally part of the private villa of Lin Erjia, a wealthy businessman from Taiwan, who built a replica of his father’s residence in Taipei. The site opened to the public in 1955 after it was donated to become a garden. It is purposely built between the sea and the hills in a clever layout that takes advantage of the natural terrain, using gardening techniques such as "hiding elements," "borrowing from the surroundings" and "combing movements" to achieve an illusion of infinite space and surprise the visitor.
