Lan Su Chinese Garden, Classical Chinese garden in downtown Portland, United States.

The 40,000-square-foot garden contains traditional pagodas, pavilions, stone paths, and water features arranged around the central Zither Lake.

Portland and its sister city Suzhou collaborated to create this garden in 2000, with 65 Chinese artisans completing construction in 14 months.

The garden hosts tea ceremonies in its dedicated Teahouse while offering programs focused on Chinese gardening methods, arts, and music throughout the year.

Located near public transportation in Portland's city center, the garden provides restrooms, information kiosks, and complete accessibility for all visitors.

The construction required 500 tons of rocks imported from China and features over 400 plant varieties sourced from Oregon nurseries.
