Eling Park. Eling Park crowns the Eling Ridge of Chongqing peninsular. It commands a panoramic view of the Yangtze River to its south, the Jialing River to its north, the city proper to its east and the Futuguan to its west. Built in the period 1909 to 1911, it used to be a villa of a wealthy merchant. AS the terrain is like the head of a goose, a Qing Dynasty imperial aide Zhao Xishu, who was a friend of the merchant, once inscribed two Chinese characters E-ling(goose ridge), which is now carved on a stone tablet.    Inside the bonsai garden of the park, there are more than 100 varieties of rare potted plantsand miniature landscapes. NOt far from the garden is a man-made lake called Ronghu. The stone handrails on the bridge are uniquely carved in the form of a rope. Nanyuan Garden in the park is densely shaded with trees such as camphor trees, ginkgo, pine trees, winter sweet, cassia trees and crape myrtle. With weird rockery under trees it has a flavur of pastoral life. The newly-built tower Liangjiang Ting has eight storeys. Standing on the top, visitors can enjoy a bird's eye view of the city at daytime, and a magnificent view at night. The chrysanthemum show of the city, held in the park each year, displays hundreds of rare species of chrysanthemums.
