This article is the preface written by Ye Lao for a Suzhou garden album. At the beginning of 1979, a publishing house in Hong Kong planned to publish an album introducing Suzhou gardens, and asked Ye Lao to preface it. Ye Lao lived in Suzhou until he was 22 years old. In his spare time, he often visits Suzhou gardens with friends, and he has a deep understanding of the tastes and characteristics of Suzhou gardens. In writing this preface, he referred to Suzhou Gardens edited by Professor Chen Congzhou.

The general feature of Suzhou gardens is "to ensure that no matter where tourists stand, there is always a perfect picture in front of them", that is, the gardens are "painting everywhere". This is the center of the whole paper, and "pictures" become the clue to introduce Suzhou gardens.

The "perfect picture" is embodied in four stresses and one "everything": "Pay attention to the layout of pavilions, the coordination of rockery ponds, the foil of flowers and trees, and the level of close-range vision." Everything should be designed into a perfect picture. This is also the general outline and sequence explained below.
