With the arrival of spring, Xuetian Garden in Chongchuan district, Nantong, has been attracting many visitors.

The garden, covering an area of 11,000 square meters, was built in the 1990s and underwent 30 million yuan ($4.24 million) in renovations from the local government in 2010. It now serves as a public area for exercise and other recreational activities.

The upgraded garden has indoor, outdoor, and underground areas. The outdoor area is equipped with many sports and fitness facilities such as ping pong tables and is surrounded by many trees for people to escape the sun.
