The wide open grass of western parks is more often than not replaced by elaborate \u98ce\u6c34(f\u0113ngshu\u01d0, geomantic omen) designs including hills of various sizes, at least one water feature, an abundance of trees and of course some splendid Chinese architecture.<br \/>\nIn Chinese parks you will always come across people giving their mind, body and souls a good workout. Here there\u2019s a broad understanding particularly among older generations, that our muscles and every other organ in our body need exercise to maintain health. <\/p>\n<p>Despite the bitter cold of a Beijing winter some healthy Chinese citizens are not deterred from going out to exercise in the city&#8217;s parks.

Different generations are still brought together in China by traditional games and pastimes that require a bit of movement in the great outdoors. <\/p>\n<p>China&#8217;s parks are essentially beautiful charming places where the pace of life is slowed down and people enjoy nature, socialize, exercise and enjoy freedom from the constraints of keeping up appearances. This is a part of life in modern China which can and should be an example to other&#8217;s the world over. <\/p>\n<p>Enjoying the simple pleasures of China&#8217;s park life has the potential to make people physically and mentally healthier, reliving burdens on health care systems and sportive families.
