Baomo Garden is known as one of the four famous gardens in China. Baomo Garden was built at the end of the Qing Dynasty, covering an area of five acres, destroyed in the fifties of the twentieth century, and then rebuilt in 1995, and now the whole garden area has expanded to 168 acres (about 100,000 square meters).

Baomo Garden is divided into ten scenic spots and more than 50 scenic spots, with two Guinness best - porcelain carving "Qingming Riverside Map" and brick carving "Tuyan and Mingbi". The top ten scenic spots are: the world is rare, the art forest is ancient, Yanglian Zhiben, Lidao boating, Zidong Qingge, Lanmo Qingfen, Binuma Red Lotus, Yule Feiquan, Carp Turning Red Waves, and Rosewood Chunyong.
