The Couple's Retreat Garden



A short canalside walk from the packed Humble Administrator's Garden is the Couple's Retreat Garden and it is deserted. The coach parties don't come here and it is quiet and undisturbed. It is not as old as  some of the other gardens being late Qing, started in 1874 and expanded and renovated later. The garden is split in two by the residential quarters whcih consist of a substanial mansion and some smaller buildings.
