Created to nurture and inspire all who visit, Lan Su Yuan is little changed from what might have greeted visitors during the Ming Dynasty in China. Portland’s is an authentic Suzhou-style garden that grew out of a friendship between Portland and Suzhou, a city renowned for it’s exquisite gardens.

The Portland Classical Chinese Garden needs and is grateful for gifts of all amounts. We recognize all donors through Garden publications and for large contributions, Lan Su Yuan will offer donor recognition through the naming of available buildings, courtyards, pavilions, Lake Tai rocks, and Leak Windows.

Lan Su Yuan’s Leak Windows - each with a unique design depicting nature or a geometric pattern - invite a “borrowed view,” sharing a glimpse of the verdant beauty that lies beyond. Create your own lasting legacy at the Portland Classical Chinese Garden and name a Leak Window for your family or yourself.
