COMPARATIVE STUDY ON CHINESE AND WESTERN GARDENING ARTS

The differences and identities of the arts of classical gardening between China and the West are compared in this paper. Due to the differences in natural conditions, historical origins, social environments, cultural backgrounds and religious factors, the gardenings in China and the West developed in a diametrically opposite way at the very begining. The former has been seeking natural beauty, and the later was in pursuit of artificial beauty. Even so, there are many identities, such as identity of mankind, social identity and material identity, of the gardening between China and the West, which are confirmed by the author according to the historical facts of exchange between the two. And now, facing the commom problems of environment, the both are in the same direction towards the natural and ecological gardens by different routes.
