Supplementary fill-ins in landscape are made and arranged with concerns
for environmental factors such as urban background, city history,
cultural heritage, folk custom, and climate.
Pavilions, flower stands, rockeries, ponds, groves, parterres, roads,
lands, lamps and chairs around the West Lake are all designed to be
harmoniously integrated with scenic spots. Every article embodies
the theme of the corresponding scenic spot and meanwhile giving an
individual character.
West Lake Landscape signifies the consummate combination of natural
charm and artificial beauty. Though artificially made, fill-ins look
as if naturally formed. Most architectures are small and exquisite;
rocks and rockeries conform to the natural shape of the background
as a whole; Groves and flowers are arranged in distinct gradation;
Landforms are formed according to their individual functions; and
the zigzagging paths are paved for tourists to best enjoy scenery.
