New town yancheng post with government

Xincheng Langyue Manor occupies a site in Tinghu District, Yancheng, a city historically known as Dengying and named after the salt fields that once ringed its walls. The district layer carries a thousand-year-old salt-transport culture layered with Wu-Yue, Huaiyang and Chu-Han traditions, and the landscape designers Shanghai Weima, with architecture by Jiangsu Zhusen and interiors by Matrix Shanghai, were asked to distil that inheritance into a 2,400-square-metre demonstration garden opened in 2021. The governing idea is to build a garden that fuses landscape with classical academy atmosphere, taking the compact, waterside Tuisi Garden as a formal reference and drawing on the techniques of traditional Chinese garden making to recover classical atmosphere within a contemporary residential site. Five ceremonial spaces unfold in sequence. First, Cloud Rise: a dignified gatehouse modelled on princely mansion precedents, symmetrically composed, with art-water feature walls engraved with mountain and pine motifs, and a reflecting basin that gathers qi within a few steps. Second, Four Waters Return to the Hall: a square courtyard that captures light, wind, rain and snow, with rainwater spilling from the eaves into a stone-paved patio, and a bamboo-and-wall ink scroll that frames the classical dream of a house within a garden within a courtyard. Third, Clear Waters: a rockery-and-water allegory with mirror-like pools, a waterside pavilion and peonies, approached by a secluded bamboo grove, condensing the Yangtze-region mood of clear wind and bright moon over still water. Fourth, the Grand Hall: a simple-lined sales gallery whose framing opens onto a wide lake view, evoking Wang Wei's moonlit pines and clear springs. Fifth, the Lu Chamber: a moon gate leading to a painted wall of peaceful seas and rivers, white walls against green bamboo, with every step a new framed view. Built by Shanghai Shangnong Landscape and photographed by Muwai Photography, the project is pitched as a small but complete garden that holds the East within a courtyard, inheriting local culture through refined gardening and offering residents a quiet, cultivated way of life.
