We was given a speech by professor ZhaoBing on December 1, 2008.
Mr.Zhao introduced about landscape architecture to us. The whole speech included three parts. What is a garden, the summarization of Suzhou gardens and Suzhou gardens.
In the first part, he talked about what is a garden. In China, most of the architects think that a garden must be a fixed scope, a natural land with real soil,water and plants. In the west, ‘Gen’ means hedge and ‘Edon’ means happy place. In conclusion,a garden is a large area of land where plants and flowers are grown with stones, water so that the public can go and see them. The garden is suitable for people to live and it must be followed by science and aesthetics. Mr.Zhao also told us the four biggest kinds of gardens in China. They are imperial family garden, garden belongs to yourself, temple garden and the places of interest. Different kinds of gardens has varied styles.
The second part was about the summarization of Suzhou gardens. This part included three points. First, Suzhou gardens are very peaceful, ancient forests. It maybe very close to the morden city, but when you walk in Suzhou gardens, you may have the the feeling as you walk in forests. Second, Suzhou gardens are living history culture. You can look for ‘yesterday’ from these gardens. When we enjoy ourselves in Suzhou gardens, we might feel that we are walking in the Tang or Ming dynasty. Third, it is an art exotic flower made by Chinese culture. One of the reason that why Suzhou gardens are very famous today is that Suzhou was a place to gestate Chinese old culture. Many famous writers and architects are come from this place during thousands years. Mr.Zhao gave us a Chinese idiom which means Chinese cultrue gestates Suzhou gardens, at the same time Suzhou gardens also affect Chinese cultrue.
In the third part, Mr.Zhao talked about some of the characteristic Suzhou gardens have. The most improtant one is water and stones. I think the relationship between water and stones is also the most interesting one during his speech. Chinese architects always say, ‘stones are the bones of a garden and water is the blood of a garden.’ Southern China rains very often in summer, so the pools in Suzhou gardens are sometimes full of water or even overflow the gardens. Because of this, the owners of these gardens must make the banks of those pools very high. However, if there is only little water in pools, the high banks will be ugly. So the owners come up with a great idea which makes me feel amazing. They put a lot of stones together as a form of beautiful stairs on the banks of those pools. So that no matter if there is water in your pool, the pool is work of art. How clever those people are!
In conclusion, professor ZhaoBing gave us a wonderful speech yesterday. I learnt a lot about landscape architecture and I am interested in it now.
