A 65-metre bridge links these two pleasant and spacious gardens together. The Chinese Garden is in the Imperial Sung Dynasty style and echoing the grandeur of the Beijing Summer Palace. It has carved stone bridges, pagodas with excellent views, a stone-boat, a teahouse and other scenic spots.

The latest attraction is a Penjing Garden "Yun Xiu Yuan" housing the Chinese Garden's collection of Penjing (Bonsai).

The Japanese Garden is decorated with the simplicity with stone lanterns, hillocks and a dry garden. Peaceful and tranquil, the Japanese gardens also have a garden of Bonsai.

If one wants to see the beauty of the two gardens at its peak, they must visit the gardens on Mid-autumn night when admission is free and the gardens are decorated with lanterns of different sizes and shapes. At the same time, one can taste the delicious Chinese snacks and watch performances put up to celebrate the occasion.
