China Garden in Frauenfeld
Description
Privilege
Gorgeous and amazing piece of China in Switzerland. Loved going in and marvel at the pagodas they had. Saddly when I went they had a balcony being renovated, but we can have a peek at it while being renovated.
MoreOne of the must visit places when arriving to Zurich. The spacious lawns are very inviting for individuals and families and although the park can very crowded at times, yet it manages to keep harmony. Along the small harbors one can find secret rest areas whose steps are at the foot of the waves.
MoreI loved the China garden! It was gifted to the city of Zürich and it is very well kept. The Kois are adorable and the surrounding plants/ architecture is fun to explore. Its a must visit when going to Zürich horn since entrance is free of charge!
MoreInteresting diversion and only takes about a half hour to view. A bit underwhelming after visiting the Huntington Chinese garden in Pasadena and the Sun Yat Sen garden in Vancouver. However the water feature and shade trees provide a serene setting away from the commerce of Zurich.
MoreSuper pretty place.Fast to visit
Free entrance to the Garden. Calm and tranquil. You’ll find beautiful fishes in the lake.
MoreWe arrived after 18:00, the entrance was free. Really kind guard welcomed us. Small but really pretty garden with a pund of koi fish. Atmosphere was really exotic. Thank you

MoreA nice relaxing place in the middle of the Zurich lake bank. A small place with Chinese style architecture to stroll and look at the fishes. Kids will love the small cave

A small and charming garden to walk, sit and relax or maybe take some photos. The entry is free of charge which makes it a great option for the budget travelers. But there aren’t much things to do there!
MoreIts a simple grass lawn with some swings and activities for small kids.....so that kids can barbecue while the kids play around.Its right on lake Zurich so you can take a dip If the temperatures are soaring high.A cool place to hang out on a lazy afternoon with family and friends.
MoreIt is very cleanup kept. Garden in itself is small but inside it is beautiful and photogenic. I would recommend this to anyone who are not visiting the city in hurry.
MoreSmall place and cute with Chinese feeling. Free entrance.
We always love to stroll in this small garden close to the lake. It is calm, beautiful and you can rest for a while before continuing your visit to Zurich. Architecture-landscaping is adequate to the place and follows what you expect from this type of gardens ,(stones, water, vegetation and fishesOne extra plus: it is free!!
MoreWell this park really aint special. Very small - well kept although the water was dirty. I didnt enjoyed my stay there. There should be some extra things added but a huge plus that entrance is free or it was when I was there :)
MoreNice place to relax, read a book, or just sit with fresh air. Small and beautiful place. Right now the entrance is free.
MorePeaceful and harmonious, very pretty, well kept, and free!
Very pretty. Also it is free so that is nice. It is pretty small and there’s not so much to do besides walk around for a few minutes. But again since it doesn’t cost anything it’s an okay place to spend around 20 minutes
MoreA well designed park, with some nice places to rest for a while
A small but nice little garden, free of charge, could be a spot to chill for 30 mins or Photoshooting;)
MoreBeautiful far East oasis in the middle of Zürich. Currently no entrance fee. Take a peak!

MoreLess recommended to visit during wintertime. This show garden named Chinese Garden is a chinese garden on the lakeside of Zürich. It is a gift from Zürichs Chinese partner town Kunming, dedicated to the Three Friends of Winter: pine, bamboo and plum blossom. It may get a bit crowded compared to its surface. It’s advisable to check peak hours beforehand to avoid them.
MoreThe garden is free of charge. Parking is a few steps away. Beautiful way to spend a weekend afternoon with your family and friends. Kids will definitely enjoy it too.
MoreBeautiful park in Seefeld. Visited finally after 2 yrs in Zurich and I can say its worth it! Reminded me of my travels to HK. Very similar of not original attractions!
MoreClean and nice looking Chinese garden. Wouldnt recommend going during winter though. As it was my first time visiting, I was a bit disappointed on its size as I read its a large garden. But definitely worth a stop while in Zürich.
MoreEntrance was free when we went late Oct.It was beautiful and well laid out. Perfect spot right by the lake inside Zurichhorn.
MoreFantastic and colorful China style walled in garden with trees, gazebos, lakes, bridges, and walkways. We visited on a sunny fall day with stunning fall colors. Best of all, the entrance is free.
MoreLovely place for couples, families and singles. Takes you all the way to China with the beautiful pagodas, water body, plants and gold fish.
MoreI’m Chinese and I really like the garden! It’s well designed, full of nice details and the traditional atmosphere. I felt like in China and peaceful when I walked in it. I heard it’s a gift from the Chinese city Kunming to Zurich to thank the assistance of Zurich.
MoreThis Temple garden was one of the highlights of my trip to Zürich! A garden full of mindful meanings. Very inspiring. A real treasure.
MoreA small, beautifully located Chinese garden by Lake Zurich, some interesting elements and large fish swimming in the pond. Its definitely worth a look here.
