Dongpo Garden is located by the ancient canal in Changzhou. It features a Jiangnan garden style with a simple and elegant environment. The treasure of the garden, Yizhou Pavilion, is said to have been built in the Southern Song Dynasty. Su Dongpo came to Changzhou 11 times and disembarked here several times. The park was expanded from Yizhou Pavilion in 1954. The pavilion we see now was rebuilt in 1984.


Yizhou Pavilion has double eaves at the four corners and nine ridges. It is located at a high place in the park and is decorated with exquisite brick carvings and wood carvings. On the top of the pavilion, there are two dragons playing with a pearl, as well as patterns such as pine trees, cranes, divine dragons and swimming fish, which have high artistic value. In addition, Dongpo Garden is also the boarding and disembarking point for the cruise ships of Sanhe and Sanyuan water tour.


The cruise ships sail along the ancient canal. Taking a cruise ship requires an additional fee. Open all year round from 6:00 to 18:00.
