Yuan Ming Yuan, before its destruction, was referred to as the "Garden of Gardens," since it was a combination of gardens of different styles, Chinese and Western.

Yuan Ming Yuan consisted of three gardens. Yuan Ming Yuan (Garden of Perfect Splendour), Chang Chun Yuan (Garden of Eternal Spring) and Qi Chun Yuan (Garden of Gorgeous Spring). They covered 350 hectares.
