I have only one feeling when I have been to the setting of Pride and Prejudice.

A week later, "English study Garden 2" finally came again, today, we intend to finish the introduction of the garden that we did not finish last issue, and continue to express the beauty of the garden in my heart (although you are chasing the World Cup, you don't even watch me hum).

The first four gardens may have a royal background and are rich in plant treasures, or exquisite private gardens with excellent taste. The gardens we are going to talk about tonight are closer to the concept of "garden". If you don't spend more than half a day wandering around slowly, you will come in vain.

Among them, there is the Rococo Garden that fat friends miss (a hhh was put in last issue) ~

Study Garden in the UK 2

Compared with the helplessness that most domestic costume dramas can only go to Hengdian to take scenes, British gardens have always been the best choice for adapting classics and shooting British dramas. These gardens have their own crossing effect, which not only saves the director time in setting up the scene, but also has the depth and historical charm that the scenery does not have.

For example, we are familiar with the British drama Downton Abbey, and Pride and Prejudice, which is better than the TV series:

No resistance, has been licking the screen all afternoon to provoke _ (: thanks to ∠) _

Pride and Prejudice is set in a number of British gardens, and many official accounts have been written separately. This play has also successfully incited many netizens to travel to the UK. So~ can't go to the UK, or you think you are too poor to go. You will soon be out of control if you have nothing to do with classic British dramas at home.

Other estates aside (after all, not this time), Paeonia went to Stohead Manor, where the 2005 version of Pride and Prejudice was briefly set and once became a classic scene. So for today's introduction, let's start with Stoghead Gardens in Wittleshire.

Stoghead Garden

Stourhead Garden

As soon as he entered Stowe Hyde Garden, Dr. Zheng of the seminar immediately said, "A lot of plays in this place are set here."... " However, until he walked out of the garden after shopping, he didn't say which show it was.

In the "Top Ten Gardens of the World" list, Stowe Hyde Park is for its purpose. Except for Pride and Prejudice, many BBC shows like to shoot here, the most famous of which is the iconic dome: across a lake, the Temple of Apollo, hidden in the vast green of the garden, is quiet and romantic.

Temple designer Henry Flitcroft

This is where Mr. Darcy proposed to Elizabeth in the play. Perhaps because of the movies, more and more couples like to date and propose here, becoming a popular place to hold weddings.

The beauty of Stohead Park does not stop there. It was built in 1745-1761, and the Flora Temple, Pantheon and Palladio Bridge are all classic landscapes. Some people say that Stoghead Gardens is an example of "nostalgia" in upper-class English society. For the English aristocracy in the 18th century, the more classical it is, the more valuable it is.

English gardens all have a characteristic. The doorway doesn't look big, so it's easy to think that it's just a small park or something. As a result, the mountains are high, the lakes are wide and the trees are strong, and they are getting farther and farther away.

After walking through a casual garden, glass greenhouse and castle, we finally realized that it was just an appetizer. Architect Henry Hoare II designed the lake area with a circumference of about 3 kilometers and the surrounding plants for the park, while another designer, Henry Flitcroft, designed the Apollo Temple, which is Stohead's main dish.

The park is set against the background of Aeneid by the Roman poet Virgil. The lake symbolizes the Mediterranean Sea and rewrites the epic in the form of space, praising the birth of Roman civilization.

Although translated as a garden, it is actually more accurate to use the word "garden" to describe Stowe Hyde, because it has the "objectivity" of a typical English garden.

Arthur Schopenhauer once wrote in his essay on Schopenhauer's Aesthetics:

The leisurely and natural charm of these flowers and plants, as well as their elegant layout and arrangement, show that they are not grown under the strict supervision of people's inflated self, but at the free disposal of nature. Every small area that is left out in the cold will soon become beautiful.

Stohead Park seems to hide man-made traces to the greatest extent, making the flower garden look like the result of the free domination of nature.

Among the amazing landscapes, birds, insects and fish, and great buildings, don't forget to take time to pay attention to the plants at your feet or overhead. Although it doesn't treasure all the plants like Kew, there are many lovely and even amazing varieties.

It is said that this is Huang Jing.

My favorite fern.

Suddenly Xiao Yu, a classmate of the study class, cried out.

She works in the botanical garden.

Saw a huge, Davidia involucrata ~

Too far away, too high, a little slapped, please forgive me

It can be said that it is not easy for students who can recognize Davidia involucrata. At present, this plant is called the "living fossil" of the plant kingdom, and it is a national first-class key protected wild plant.

Davidia involucrata became extinct during the Quaternary Ice Age and survived only in some parts of southern China. Wild species can be seen in and around Sichuan Province in southwest China and Hubei Province in central China. Luoyang is said to have been successfully bred and planted on a large scale.

Stohead Park may be prosperous and bright in spring, but its autumn is more fascinating. A British travel website rated it as "probably the most beautiful park in autumn." indeed, Stohead in autumn seems to be another strange and charming world.

A good garden is not a product of artificial affectation, but shows the concept of flowers, grass, mountains and water in as pure a way as possible, that is, the unique nature of flowers, grass, mountains and water.

Stohead Park is great all year round because it objectively presents the will of nature.

Painswick Rococo Garden

Painswick Rococo

On the morning of going to Rococo Garden, it was foggy, and the air was wet and cold. With rococo, it was like coming to Wonderland.

The garden looks very small and actually covers an area of 10 acres (about 40,000 square meters). It was built in the mid-18th century and is typical of Rococo style. Since the 1980s, it has been renovated on a large scale, and all kinds of plants have been planted in the park.

Rococo style is actually a kind of decorative art style.

Produced in France in the 1820s, popular among French aristocrats, the interior is often decorated with bright colors and delicate decoration, and the furniture is also very exquisite and tedious. The color of rococo style is very delicate and beautiful, such as bright green, pink, scarlet, etc., and the foot line is mostly gold.

These small pink buildings are typical of rococo style.

There are many interesting little details in the garden, such as a tree was damaged by lightning and someone turned it into a "little castle":

There are a lot of lace on the mountain. As I stroll, I want to write a piece of lace that I wrote before I came to England. It is the wind passing through the hall, the fragrance of green grass, the flower of wild carrots), once again sighing in my heart, nature is the best creative teacher, and we can get all the answers and inspiration here.

Rococo Garden has a botanical maze and three more play centers (now I finally know why I got lost) ┍ (┑). It's a paradise for children. All kinds of man-made and natural toys are embedded in nature, and even I want to play crazy.

It's a real swing!

It's a real seesaw!

There are all kinds of outdoor climbing facilities.

It feels good to be a smarty pants!

When I came to Rococo, I felt smaller. And maybe I haven't seen a big and complete dandelion for too long. I blew happily all the way for a long time.

In a word, the autumn rococo is also beautiful, secretly clenching his fists, looking forward to going again!

Look at lace in spring and snow in autumn and winter, which is one of Rococo's proud publicity points.

There is a small garden restaurant outside the Rococo Gate. After shopping, if you want to continue your journey and want something to eat, you can choose to simply fill your stomach here.

Two students in the seminar ordered "British national cuisine" fish and chips with a cup of hot chocolate, which is very Rococo.

Oxford University Botanical Garden

Oxford botanic garden

If my favorite garden in the previous article is Abbey House, then my favorite garden in the second article should be the Oxford University Botanical Garden, probably because "the sparrow has all the five organs", and, small, there is no hurry.

Usually before visiting this botanical garden, you can go to Oxford University and church by the way. Walking in Oxfordshire, there is a faint sense of Harry Potter.

On that day, I also ran into high achiever who took the exam. It has always been a tradition for students at Oxford University to wear black robes during the final exams, white carnations for the first exam, red carnations for the last exam, and pink carnations for the exams in between.

Secretly take pictures of the elegant little sister high achiever

After strolling, you can enter the Oxford Botanical Garden, and the entrance is also very small, and there are usually few tourists here. It is more accurate to say that it is the "herbal garden" of the University of Oxford rather than the Botanical Garden. The main function is to support university teaching, scientific research and species conservation.

The Oxford University Botanical Garden was founded in 1621 and is located in the southeast corner of the central city of Oxford University. It now collects more than 7000 different types of plants.

The botanical garden consists of three parts, the old garden surrounded by the old wall built at the beginning of the garden, the new garden located in the north of the old garden and the greenhouse.

A strange and strong geranium was found in the old garden.

In the glass greenhouse, you can also enjoy the dense tropical economic plants. The area is small, there are a lot of plants, the arrangement is orderly, and I got lost once.

Here you can see a lot of native Chinese plants, and from time to time you can meet a leading teacher, followed by students of different ages or expedition teams, taking notes carefully.

Similarly, the rock garden was not left behind.

A more mini rock garden.

Compared with the scientific research function of the old garden and greenhouse, the new garden mainly displays the varieties and configuration forms for family greening.

The picture is from @ Queen Mother, a member of the workshop.

There is also a colored egg hidden in the new garden.

The prototype of Mandrake screamed by Harry Potter.

You can have a game with your friends, who will find it first?

It depends on whether your legs are fast and your eyes are not sharp.

Humorously, the official website of the Oxford Botanical Garden also introduces their coffee shop, and this coffee shop is actually more accurate to say "coffee car".

When it rained, I was forced to stay in front of the coffee cart and wait for the rain to stop, so I was in the mood to have a drink and watch the rain.

Coffee is also a small cup.

The pattern of the coffee cup body is very beautiful.

Pull flowers are also very complete.

Before many tourists know about this place, I suggest that you who go to Oxford must take a stroll and buy a cup of "small coffee", .

On this trip, it was cloudy, rainy, sunny and foggy.

It's a unique experience that no amount of money can buy.

Seeing a beautiful scenery can make us feel very happy.

Because the scenery can filter and purify our minds.

As a result, we see the universal truth of nature.

May life be natural, and this life be natural.

-

Last week, we set up a group of travel and study tidbits.

Due to the restriction of Wechat, only 100 people can enter.

Many friends come late, indicating that they can't get in.

Today we'll build another one.

(don't be naughty if you are already in the first group.)

The group will exchange details about travel and study, eat, drink and have fun.

There are also gossip that is inconvenient to disclose in the article:)
