In Chinese gardens the point of observation is determined; the observer was guided by the design (pathways, corridors, bridges, tunnels, pavilions, or towers) to move to this points.

In the same way, a Chinese garden can never be completely surveyed from a certain point. It consists of more or less isolated sections which must be discovered gradually and enjoyed as the beholder continues his stroll: he must follow the paths wander through tunnels ponder the water, reach a pavilion from which a fascinating view unfolds. He is led on into a composition that is never completely revealed. These gardens are observed and contemplated gradually, in time, through a succession of scenes, designed to unfold one after another.
