The design of Chinese gardens was to provide a spiritual utopia for one to connect with nature, to come back to one's inner heart, to come back to ancient idealism. Chinese gardens are a spiritual shelter for people, a place they could be far away from their real social lives, and close to the ancient way of life, their true selves, and nature. This was an escape from the frustration and disappointment of the political problems in China. They used plants as symbols.
The Chinese Classical Garden, sometimes called a Scholar's garden or simply Chinese garden, and its associated garden culture are expressions of Chinese vernacular landscape architecture aesthetics. Several cultural factors within Chinese civilization, starting from the Neolithic, merged during the Jin Dynasty to form Classical Chinese Gardens as a stylistically distinct creation within the stream of Chinese vernacular landscape architecture.
