Tell me about the name
Yun Shui, or 雲水 means Cloud and Water in Chinese. Lan Su Chinese Garden represents a bridge between the cultures of our home city, Portland, Oregon and our Sister City, Suzhou, China. It represents the clouds coming from the East, Suzhou (雲自東方來) and water coming from the West, The Willamette River (水從河中取). Yun Shui 雲水 perfectly captures the sense of energetic connection between the two cities and offers an experience similar to the energy of tea. Located in the Tower of Cosmic Reflections, Yun Shui 雲水 is a perfect place to sit and reflect or gather with friends while visiting Lan Su. This name is a result of months-long community listening sessions
