It is a classical garden in the south of the Yangtze River. It was built in the Jiajing and Wanli years of the Ming Dynasty. More than 30 acres of land.

In the park, there are the three famous stone names in the south of the Yangtze River, the Jade Linglong, the command post of the 1853 Small Knife Uprising, and the tourist attractions such as the Chenghuang Temple and the shopping street. Yuyuan was opened to the public in 1961 and was listed as a national key cultural relics protection unit by the State Council in 1982.

Yuyuan was originally a private garden of the Ming Dynasty. It was built in the Ming Dynasty and has a history of more than 400 years until 2018. Most of Yuyuan buildings are built with wooden structures and clay roof tiles.

From the 1559 (Ming Jiajing Later Year), the owner of the garden, Mr. Pan Yunduan, built a garden on several vegetable fields on the west side of the Panjia Residence Shichuntang. After more than 20 years of painstaking efforts, the Yu Garden was built. "Yu" has the meaning of "Peace" and "Antai". It is named "Yuyuan" and has the meaning of "Yue Yue Laoqin".

At the time, Yu Garden occupied more than 70 acres and was designed by Zhang Nanyuan, a famous Ming Dynasty garden builder, and personally participated in the construction. The ancients praised the Yu Garden "Qi Xiujia in the southeast" and "Southeast Garden Crown".
