Shanghai's Yuyuan Garden is a classic Chinese garden, created in the 16th century by a Ming Dynasty bureaucrat.
It's a nice place. Doubtlessly best enjoyed in quiet contemplation, as it would have been at the time. Unfortunately there isn't much quiet contemplation to be had in Chinese Gardens these days. They're always crowded.
It's hard to get pictures that aren't full of people. Usually they're taking photos too, often of themselves! Eventually I gave up trying to get any people-free shots. I started concentrating on the people, and their selfies!
