CROSSWATERS ECOLODGE,
GUANGDONG PROVINCE, CHINA
Education is an important focus of China’s green movement, and
the Crosswaters Ecolodge endears eco-education with a retreat
where visitors can experience the green power of nature firsthand.
Chinese eco-tourism at its finest, Crosswaters Ecolodge provides its
guests with a greater understanding of its environment while giving
back to the locals living in Guangdong Province. The compound
includes terraced farming which feeds its restaurant and the local
villagers alike, while a wild bamboo-sourced structural habitat wows
its visitors while they enjoy their stay. Still path-side ponds, a high-
reaching observation tower and a beautiful bamboo bridge merge
traditional Chinese architecture with sound landscape design
techniques.

Landscape architecture designs can be about so much more than just
mulch and sod, nursery trees and shrubs. The design of a landscape
can be a truly artful undertaking, and its results can help protect,
preserve and cleanse the world we live in. To learn more about
landscape architecture, visit the American Society of Landscape
Architects, an organization whose mission it is to “lead, to educate,
and to participate in the careful stewardship, wise planning, and artful
design of our cultural and natural environments.”
