Qingyin garden, Chinese garden in Stuttgart, Germany
Qingyin garden is a Chinese park in Stuttgart featuring traditional southern Chinese architecture with red-painted wooden walls and curved roofs. A central pond is fed by cascading streams that create a flowing water landscape throughout the space.
The garden was established in 1993 during the International Garden Exhibition as a gift from Jiangsu province to Baden-Württemberg. This gesture marked the beginning of a cultural exchange between the region and China.
Stone tablets throughout the garden display Chinese poems, including verses about the harmony between mountains and water. These inscriptions invite visitors to pause and reflect on the relationship between nature and art.
The garden is located near Stuttgart main station and remains open daily from morning until dusk with free entry for all visitors. Wear comfortable shoes as you will walk across bridges and around the pond throughout your visit.
A stone formation from Taihu Lake near Shanghai stands at the entrance, displaying natural shapes that resemble different animal figures. Visitors often enjoy spotting these hidden forms within the rock structure as they explore the garden.
