 ◆ Chinese traditional garden opens in Paris

The first Chinese traditional garden built in France has opened in a city in the outskirts of Paris, CRIENGLISH.com reported Thursday.

The garden, called Yili Garden, covers an area of 6,000 square metres.

It is designed by two Chinese horticulturists with the help of China's Garden Bureau of Suzhou, which boasts the most classic gardens in China.

French visitors have been attracted by the garden's refined layout and its unique charm.

The local mayor has planted a tree symbolizing Sino-French friendship in the Yili Garden.
