Stepping into the West Lake exhibition area, visitors not only find themselves immersed in the classic and elegant landscapes of Jiangnan gardens, but they also get to experience the "Four Elegances" from the Song Dynasty (960-1279), namely burning incense, making tea, arranging flowers, and hanging paintings.
