Introduction to the back garden: The back garden has winding paths and is a place for the prefect and guests to enjoy flowers, the moon and play. The back garden was originally called "Stealing Paradise", which means "water is also a worry, drought is also a worry, and the prefect's happiness is stolen." It was taken by Zhang Dunren, the prefect of the Ming Dynasty. In the year of Tianqi, Song Zushun, the prefect of Huai'an, thought the word "steal" was indecent, so he changed it to "Yuyuan Garden", which means a garden where you can find happiness in your spare time.
