The Chinese Garden is classed as a temple garden and is one of the highest-ranking gardens outside of China.
The Chinese Garden is located right by the lake at the Zürichhorn and was a gift from the city’s Chinese partner town of Kunming. At the center is a pond with a small island, pavilions and even a small palace on the banks. It is classed as a temple garden and is one of the highest-ranking gardens outside of China.
The garden was given in thanks for the technical and scientific support provided with expanding drinking water supplies and urban drainage in Kunming.
