Dongpo Park is located by the ancient canal in Changzhou. It has the style of a Jiangnan garden with a simple and elegant ancient environment. The treasure of the park, Yizhou Pavilion, is said to have been built in the Southern Song Dynasty. Su Dongpo came to Changzhou 11 times and disembarked here several times. The park was expanded from Yizhou Pavilion in 1954. The pavilion we see now was rebuilt in 1984. Yizhou Pavilion has double eaves at four corners, soaring ridges with nine ridges. It is located at a high place in the park and is decorated with exquisite brick carvings and wood carvings. On the top of the pavilion, there are two dragons playing with a pearl, as well as patterns such as pine trees, cranes, divine dragons and swimming fish, which has high artistic value. In addition, Dongpo Park is also the boarding and disembarking point for the cruise ships on the Sanhe and Sanyuan water tour. The cruise ships travel along the ancient canal. Taking a cruise requires an additional fee. Opening hours: Open from 6:00 to 18:00 all year round.
