Similar in style to the constructions of the Forbidden City, square spaces and square structures are a constant until one gets past the final tower. Suddenly observers are soothed by the sweeping curves of a massive circular garden, its entirety elevated up towards the sky. The garden is filled with green grasses and pine trees, akin to a natural forest but hoisted up from the ground. Visitors may not enter, but are treated to a pleasant walk around its perimeter, with the courtyard in the distance below.
