Four -Toed Dragons at Yu Gardens





The original creator and owner of this garden commissioned an artist to create undulating dragons to guard the garden walls. Unlike the emperor's dragons, which can have five toes, these have only four. Mustn't offend the mighty...
I love the circular doors in the walls. You can see our teacher's group walking along a stone bridge through this one.
