This small garden centers around a pool with many beautiful pavilions and walkways. Each night the local residents perform small pieces of local musical art whilst the audience moves from pavilion to pavilion about the garden. Some of the items include: flutes across the water, the chinese harp, ballet-type dance, folk music and ensemble of chinese musical instructments - all enjoyable to the western ear.
The furntiure within the pavilions is worth looking at, as for the exquistic marble slabs which look like paintings.
