Written by researchers in ancient Chinese architecture, Excellence of Ancient Chinese Architecture is a series of popular readers about traditional Chinese architecture. Imperial Gardens consists of two parts, descriptive texts and plates. The texts treat of the development of imperial gardens, from their emergence and development through ages to their full bloom during the Qing Dynasty, illustrated with color pictures, plans and sectional drawings; plates in the book show pictures of imperial gardens with vivid and accurate captions, such as Beihai Park, the Summer Palace, Yuanmingyuan Park and the Summer Resort in Chengde.
